Thanks for the replys. I can't even get my phone in there to take a picture. I bought a grommet off the help rack for $3. Also enlarged the hole in the intake a little. I could get the drain in by itself but not with the whole turbo setup. Then bought a new grommet from g body parts. It was the...

Thanks for the advice. I won't be gasket matching anymore.

Has anyone noticed how bad the intake manifold runner matches the head runner by looking through the injector port with a fel pro gasket? I bolted mine up and it looks like the intake is about 3/32nds to high. I took it back off and tried it with no gasket, it was still off about a 1/16. I...
