Toll Free: (800) 669-2430. Call them and tell them what you're doing and what you need. When I ordered mine a few years ago I got the adapter plates(which are really nothing more then a heavy copper gasket with the 2v port size) and the angled reducers all on the same order. Hope this helps.

The short answer is yes. The Sanderson headers are made to fit the exhaust port size of the 4v Cleveland heads, therefore, if used on a 2v head without the adapter plate/gasket they will leak like crazy because the 4v exhaust ports are soooo much bigger then the 2v ports.
