Default afr 205 bolt hole in intake runner

I was just woundering if all the afr 205 heads have the hole in the intake runner for the rocker bolt. And if it does mess flow up, is their anything i can do about it. I remmber seeing something about it in a thread but couldnt find it using the search.

I just cut eight of my rocker bolts tonight. It hung down in there about 1/4". I cut just below the threads and tapered the edges. I also lock tighted them in.

They look better now. I will take a pic tomorrow before I get the intake on.

trim the amount off that just hangs into the runner, that's it.

my bolts that came with my harlen sharp roller rockers didnt hang in the runner at all. But as im going to be puting the stockers back on, i guess they will now. i was more concerned with air flow. But no that you mention it how do i go about trimming the bolts, wont i mess the th\eads up. or are the bolts not threaded to the ends, i havent seen them in a good while.
