Intake ?
#3
Not sure what you're trying to gain, but why would you want to assemble using mis-matched parts? I've always used components that were designed to work together, then "gasket-matched" my aluminum intake manifolds, and aluminum exhaust as well. I've tried to work my cast iron heads to the gaskets as well, always looking to get the best "un-interrupted" flow through the breathing portion of the engine. I don't want to be a nay sayer, but I don't see how you're going to accomplish that with mis--matched parts...

Very hard to do because most oval port intakes will not cover the top of the rectangular port openings in the head. Can you say massive vacuum leak ?
However, the Dart Single Plane Oval Port intake usually has enough height to it's head mating surface to cover the rectangular port openings on head.
And yes, many have done this.

I think one of the older Holley High Rise Dual Plane (oval port) Intakes would seal it too, but that was a long time ago, and i'm old, so that millimeter of a memory may be way wrong. Howevever, I have good memory on the Dart Single Plane Oval Port intake.

Since you deflated my sails by not giving us correct info earlier.
I'll ask now: which Weiand Blower ? They made several different sizes.
Ah, forget it.
Just call Weiand. If they have no answer - they should - then do what was said above and take the intake and lay across a rect port intake gasket and see if it will seal.
