Drive it in at an angle between the plate and the block. Work around the inside in a circle. Don't jamb it in one side or you may bend the plate. Work it around and it will eventually break the seal on the outside edge. While you are at it add a few extra holes for the oil to flow through the plate like I have found on the HD engines. The weakest link for the everyday small block is the restrictive oil system IMHO.

It might take you several hours to sort thru all of it but he is one of the foremost SB oiling experts in the country & if your eng is being built up from scratch right now his info will benefit you & I used alot of his mods on a BB as the oiling system is routed pretty similar. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

Hit the block side surface with some 320 grip paper on a blocked surface to make sure it's flat. As for the extra hole, more can help but keep in mind you are restricted on both paths AND you will not be able to open up the center hole in the mounting stud. The kit I bought for 35 dollars had the gaskets, plate and new mounting stud. Have fun.

Anonymous Unregistered A	i dont believe you need the rt angle adapter for manifolds. for 1 3/4 hooker super comps on an e body, you can use the shorty filter and it will fit straight to the block
