Default Need help. Quick!!!

After one 1 attempt to install my holley intake. I am at it again. This time I noticed when I set the intake in and everything was in place. The front was flush with the gaskets. The rear was flush against the gasket....but the rear passenger side was about maybe an 8th of an inch sticking up.

I torqued them down halfway and the intake looks flush against the gasket.

My question:

Do I put it on anyway and hope for the best(No vacuum Leaks) or

Do I put the stock one back on and leave it alone. Call it a day.

Any ideas please help me decide.

I have heard many are having a lot of fitment issues. I would take it to a professional. Let them put it on. That way you have someone to point the finger at..
