It won't bolt directly on because of the two center bolt holes on each side. You need to change the manifold holes from 90 degrees to 72 degrees (closer to vertical).
Try a search, I believe someone has posted pictures of it.

I haven't done it myself. The two methods I recall hearing were taking a rat-tail file to it, and using a drill bit.
