I find that the bottom of my "A" intake sits on top of the front valley cover bolt. I made some rudimentary measurements (its difficult to measure with the tools that I have) and it would appear that this manifold is slightly narrower than the two barrel manifold I also have although I can see that the 2 bbl manifold was also hitting the same bolt. Is there a way to ensure that the intake lines up properly with the heads? I am sure I can modify the cover bolt or the rubber washer but want to make sure that the intake is fitting properly.

Thanks.
