I know im probably beginning to sound like a broken record, But as soon as I can ever get my "test" head, I can begin to address and answer some of these questions. Since there is no alignment dowels for the intake, only the port rings. Then, the counterbore for larger rings will need to be machined into the head or possibly as you said, some dowels placed into the head and intake to locate them at each end! Still its a start,we will just be patient. You have gotten farther than I have so far....Thanks for the info and update!
