Thread: Do all Blower Manifolds need to be machined?

    My Manifold, A weiand 7151, Has to be slid into place from the front to fit between the heads.
    The edge under the blower stud holes hits my valve covers.
    anyone know how to fix this? :cry:

    Has your block been decked?
    Weiand is the poorest quality manifold that you can get. Does it have a raised floor?
    Might be e-bay material.

    The Block has been decked and the heads milled nut I don't know by how much.

    Block decked and heads milled by any more than just a hair = some possible intake milling as well.
    Usually some push rod attention also.

    Go check it with a gasket....changes everything. Take the valve covers off and do it.

    manifold won't fit. The ledge that the covers rest on gets in the way.

    Why they make die grinders. Or use a BDS. I don't recall grinding on them.
