Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.
Thanks for the info I just wanted to make sure that I was not doing something wrong. My plan is to bore out the holes slightly in the intake manifold to make it fit. I am thankful for the help from this group and all the people that have helped me with this problem. Thanks to all!!!- David Downey

Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.
The block has never been touched just replacing the heads. I have worked on a couple of these engines before but have never run into this problem before especially since I have put 2 different sets of heads on this motor and have had the same problem both times so one would think that it can't...- David Downey

Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.

Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.
I do not have another manifold to check I have all ready went through 2 head gasket sets and 2 valley pans gaskets I'm at a loss as to what to do at this point.

Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.
I would not have had the heads decked if I knew this would be a problem. The holes are clean.how do I test if the valves will hit the pistons turn over by hand, I have read a post some where that they had to drill the intake to get to line up. I have tried 2 different sets of heads both sets...- David Downey

Rebuilt Heads Intake won't line up.
I have a 1986 F250 6.9 and I purchased rebuilt heads but when I torque the heads down the intake manifold will not line up with the heads, am I missing something.
