I tried to mount this CRP manifold yesterday and it wont go on flush with the stock studs...............is there a trick to this?
People talk about the SS manifold but that thing slid on like butter

here are some pics of the manifold
thanks for any help and advice

The head flange might be warped just get it checked out at the machine shop

 

i have a b17 and this is for a b series motor................

 

get a step drill bit and ream it out. and get the manifold resurfaced.
