Edelbrock heads with OEM manifolds

So, first, the grind on the head method...Some have done it & gotten away with it.... Some like Steve Dulcich have found water.... What I did was use an old header flange as a spacer.... Moved the manifold out about 5/16" giving about 1/8" clearance..
I agree with this all I did was take the hard square edge off. I Was Scared of Water. Was better to remove it from the manifold and use thick gaskets.
