If you really want cross bolted caps in a wedge then ProGram makes a set
that are designed to work w/ the wedge block. But it's not a Black and
Decker deal. You have to put the block in a mill and fit it for the caps to
mate up.

While you're there you may as well add provisions for the Stage V hemi heads
;)


BTW - a Rat Roaster is probably THE worst manifold to try to adapt to EFI -
it has a top plate that would interfere with the injectors - a tunnel ram
would be MUCH easier. If you still have your heart set on it then I'd
suggest you go look at a GM CPI 4.3L V-6. That would probably be easier to
do

FWIW - Jason
