Think I got mine from Mancini Racing...they keep all that stuff in stock usually.

Is the intake end rail touching the block or do you have plenty of space there? Are you using the cork gaskets supplied with the intake gaskets for the end rails? Pictures or it don't count. Give me a call if I can help any. Jerry 7395621-440SSoldschool.JPG (54 downloads) Old Geezer Racing
