Re: 282 exhaust manifold

If the 3 bolts are loosened you might have enough wiggle room to correct the space across the intake /exhaust flanges. I took mine apart years ago without breaking bolts. Also there is a “hot spot” gasket between the manifolds that came with my rebuild gasket set. I guess it’s also possible somebody milled the exhaust manifold and not the intake. As Howard noted there is not much meat on the manifolds to mill, so if needed be careful.
