Thanks for the advice. I've had mine for several years, I Bought it, unused, from a forum member. I couldn't trade it, anyway, because it's been ground on. And I don't particularly feel like going through this with another one as a pig in a poke.
Don't forget my heads have had a .020 cut. If I start a couple of bolts in one side, I can't start them in the other. It would probably take .040 before I could and that wouldn't center the manifold over the bolt holes. It's a shot in the dark as far as how much to cut, but I need enough to give some movement to align the ports. If I can center the manifold over the bolt holes, I should be good as far as the ports go. At least I'll be a lot closer. There's still the issue of the runners not giving enough clearance for a socket to tighten the bolts. I'll have to clog up a few carbide burrs to fix that problem.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
