quite the fitting issues as well ...in Stahl's defence my head is milled down
so the flange hit the block but the flange was also too big for my intake to
fit and the bolt holes didn't line up to the head..... a slight massage of the
frame and it fit passed the frame but I ended up welding the inside of the tubes
do I could remove enough material to fit the intake :( <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
