You guys use bolts in the heads or the blocks? I always see these lift plates that bolt onto the intake where the carb goes, seems kinda iffy, especially with an alum intake.

Opinions?

I use bolts into the heads .Done it that way for 40+ years. Sometimes a pita to get the bolt out of the rear, but that's life .
