What would EMI build them like that? I had Gill manifolds on ther previously and didn't have that problem. You would think EMI would address that issue

Just put a set on my 454 mark IV's and had the same damn problem!

The only way they could "address it" is to make the manifold thinner in that area. I'd rather deal with the hose .. .

MCKILLOP, post an e-mail address and I will send a photo of my 454 w/EMI installed.

They were on the engine when I purchased the boat.
