When the heads were rebuilt, did they surface them?
A deep cut or several light cuts can leave the manifold mismatched to
the vee formed by the heads. If you end up pulling the manifold, check
for port matching. Look at the gaskets you remove and try to determine
if they were sealing all around each port.

The heads were pretty straight, so only a few thou was removed. The
shop working on it seems to think the intake gaskets were sealing to
the heads, uniform pattern.etc., but who knows, until I see it again
first hand I won't really know.
