    This happens on a tall manifold??? May I suggest you contact BDS about correcting their machining/ design errors. They were very helpfull. Even provided info on the correct welding rod to fix their part.

    I have noticed several things in regards to this;
    1-some valvecovers clear better than others
    2-some people bend there injector bodies aways from the valvecovers
    3-our Indy manifold has the injector body holes machined at an angle away from the valvecovers
    4-my biggest bother has been the one valvecover bolt that lines up with the one injector
    5-short deck manifolds with spacers clear better
    6-would short injector bodies help you?
