How do you determine exactly how much to mill off each intake flange?
Maybe I'm missing something.
From what I see the gasket looks compressed to match the intake flange.
Top of the flange is much thicker than the bottom. If I'm seeing correctly the bottom edge is also backcut.

Was there a vacuum leak?
