Exhaust manifold issue
Hello, I'm doing a motor swap in my 96 Cherokee. I bought a 93 Grand Cherokee long block and tore it down and I'm putting all my 96 stuff on it. I ordered a new manifold and when I bolt it up, it touches the side of the block near the oil pan gasket. Ive ordered 2 different manifolds for a 96 Cherokee, same problem. Any suggestions?

Is it seating fully on the head?
Not uncommon that the replacement manifolds hang up on a locating dowel.
If so, the intake manifold needs a little filing.
