Not Ranked
Any V8 should have a measurable gap between the bottom of the manifold and the block, with gaskets in place.
I like to aim for for .040, .060 is generally ok.
If the manifold touches the block, it cannot be fitted to the heads correctly, and then oil consumption is the result.
What were you sealing the manifold to block junction with?
