[QUOTE="Harley#356, post: 15837099, member: 62603"] thanks for the input guys. Much more helpful than the "just slot the holes" answer I got from the seller feeding whatever to make a sale lol Welding the holes isn't an option at this point, and would have been easier while they were apart getting checked after getting them and seeing they weren't as described in the first place, but I was still under the impression it was a quick slot to realign at that time. Would have been easy to have them welded and re-drilled/tapped while they were getting CNC ported. I like the idea of the aluminum grub screw locktited in, then drilled/tapped the adjacent spot. A quick look it appears it would only intersect the original hole by maybe 30%. Jazz when you get a chance I'd appreciate pics of your method. I'm pretty sure I'm envisioning what you're talking about but a pic would help. I will be getting my lower intake ported, powdercoated, etc, so machine work on that isn't a problem. Certainly not cutting the water necks off, my top end setup is all GT500 (4.7 KB) so keeping the OEM manifold in tact keeps that setup the cleanest. And my longblock is already assembled and heads already CNC ported so I'm not changing out now haha. More than 1 way to skin a cat, I appreciate the ideas fellas. [/QUOTE]
