Goddamnit I did not check the dry clearance at the China walls as the ford install directions clearly say to do...I’ll run it for a bit and see if by dumb luck it sealed (it won’t) and count on doing the whole thing again. I wonder if just trimming down the flanges on the manifold where it meets the China walls? Or do I have a sh*t manifold? Oh I guess that’s what you’re saying? I first pictured the mating surfaces with the head...
The gap at the ends could be pretty big as long as enough silicon was on there to catch splashing
oil (no pressure under there)...
