Intake problems

My cast iron intake won’t accommodate my ‘72 Thermoquad. What am I missing?

If you have a good TQ, just look for a decent TQ intake used. Probably can find one local or at a pick & pull for a reasonable price. Heck, you can sell that one and probably come out ahead.
Or put a wanted thread up. You now know what you need for a intake.
