thats weird, yah those cork gaskets are a pain i like the rubber ones, they are always worth a few extra bucks, but thats weird that the intake isnt fitting, the heads could be milled but i doubt it since its a 2bbl motor, unless someone rebuilt it and did a little more that resurfacing and cleaning up the surface of the heads, but still that would mean that the intake would need to be milled too, leaving the question why would you spend money milling a 2bbl intake? just doesnt make sense just try putting it on again and see if it was a mistake on your part, i do dumb stuff like that all the time haha
