I set mine where the gap between the LCA bumpstop and the frame rail is about 3/4". That's still plenty of suspension travel and the front end sits level. I don't like the look of the front end being higher than the rear, even if that was the "factory" look.
I've got the 1.03 torsion bars and...
Dennis had a Duster in the book. The book is great, one of the first books I read as a teenager. There's plenty of auto-bloopers in there, Stephen King has no clue about cars. From memory he says it's got fuel injection with a 4 barrel carb and fuelie heads or something.
Far out, you just love to argue and nit-pick everything.
Let me make it nice and easy for you to understand: If the OP really has 3 different cars and is asking for assistance on them then that is ok by probably 99% of the population, however if he doesn't have 3 different cars (or any cars)...
WTF?
If the guy is genuine then fine, but no normal people like being taken for a ride by a time waster. Do you? There's no "standards" here, we're all car guys, rich or poor.
I just asked a question as I noticed some other posts by this new guy where he had a '68 Road Runner, then a 400 Cu in...
Old school sound - I went with Thrush Glasspacks and then got a local exhaust shop to knock up a 2.5" system with a H pipe.
You'll have to trust me when I say it sounds awesome! At the track you can hear it howl all the way down the 1/4 mile. It's nowhere near the quickest, but my son reckons...
If you're ordering 1 NOS gasket then I would order 2.
The shipping will be the same and at least you have another one there ready to go should this operation be unsuccessful a third time.
Should you be unsuccessful again, before you take it to a professional, maybe seek out some fellow Mopar...
I cut my dust shield because of this - a pain in the balls to remove the starter each time. It worked fine in 2 pieces.

Isn't it upside down on the workbench right now - for you to take all those photos that don't really show anything? Can't you simply put a straightedge on it - or are you waiting for a NOS straightedge to come from the US to be able to check?
There's more drama than Shakespeare here.
So you're saying the retired mechanic didn't notice this the FIRST time you installed the manifold...and then blamed the manifold for being warped? So it isn't warped after all?
Is this a new gasket or are you re-using the gasket from last time (you could if it's only got 20 minutes run time on...
There are many threads on here debating MVA and PVA. I've been involved in some of them having made the switch to MVA myself. Use the search function to find them.
Thank you for posting what you did, but rather than plagiarise someone else's work maybe add a source at the start e.g. I found this...
