vortec heads and stock intake

I can't seem to find the posting that shows you how to modify a stock TPI intake to accept vortec heads. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks

The vortech heads have raised intake ports... Besides expensive machine work, I wouldn't think there would be a way to make the stock intake base work without some sort of custom thicker gaskets or something. Then, you'd still be losing HP from misaligned intake ports most likely anyway. If there is a way, I'm all ears! :hail:
