I think that it will only go back together the same way it came apart...although I could be wrong. Keep trying, there's bound to be something simple keeping it from fitting right. If you need a working model let me know and I can drop by tomorrow to help you out.

You will need to loosen all of the hose clamps on the manifold. Only retighten them once you have the runners torqued down to the heads.
