Chuck,
I did this a couple of weeks ago. Used a Dremel with a conical grinder to
get the areas close to the manifold faces and a ball grinder to get to the
areas "around the corner".
I would look into the manifold from one side and stick the Dremel in from
the other side. This way you can see what you are doing. It's not hard.
I'm using the manifold off my '67.
