i'll try to get you some pics of what mine look like. I'm not 100% sure about what kind of angle they need. It's kind of a trial and error basis.... Mine were machined out of alumimum and meet the manifold flush and are angled on the top so the bolt tightens flush against the manifold...

what kind of manifold? Victor E? Supervic??

2975 is the vic Jr, 4.5" tall compared to the larger 5.5" supervic.

Still a nasty intake for pretty much any sane LTX build.

I have a Vortec Super Vic on my setup and its 5.63in tall. I have some 30 degree washers and they seem to be the correct angle. There stainless steel and look great.
