problems w/installation of intake/header

I spent a few hours grinding headers and intake to fit my spare engine before seeing a starter R&R problem I didn't like. Returned the headers. Bought EFI's and ground them to fit. The starter went out last month and made me appreciate my decision, even though I KNOW headers would improve performance.

Search here for cam posts - I know I've read several.
