Use
flange marked “F” on front head and flange
marked “R” on rear. Slotted end of mounting
flange goes toward lower manifold mounting hole.
Flat washer provided is used on slotted end of
flange. Do not tighten mounting flange screws.
NOTE: If S&S heads are installed, special S&S manifold must be
used because intake port diameters of S&S heads are larger than
stock. Special S&S manifold requires O-ring seals which also have
larger than stock diameter to fit O.D. of manifold runners. These

stock applications.
Incorrect O-ring seal may cause air leaks around manifold
