Here are some before and after pictures of my 1980 MGB where I modified the intake manifold so the stainless steel header can be used.

Yes it did also do the exhaust pocket and valve boss cut it down by 3/8inch, and clean pocket on intake, match to manifold night and day in respond now a 5 speed will be on the hunt -Paul

Nice job! The 5 speed will make all the difference in the world, you'll love it! I just put a High Gear 5 speed in my 55TF and it's a totally different driving experience! I wish I had done it years ago. PJ
