Elongate the center two bolt holes on each side of the intake with a rat-tail file until the bolt will go into the head.

I got the intake holes filed to fit but it looks like it may have problems sealing since they dont have a flat surface to clamp down on. Is it alright to just torque them down? Suggestions.
