Trouble with 12a RB intake manifold

I bought this manifold off a guy who said it came off his 84 12a. Just went to test fit and the inner 2 bolt holes are about 1/8-1/4" off from the studs in the block. Car is a 82 with 12a.

Anyone know what engine this belongs too?

Should be no problem selling it. They are hard to come by. I paid something like $160 for mine on eBay and I was happy to get it that cheap.

Racing Beat components are like Miata hardtops. They don't lose resale value, so it ends up that you never "buy" them, you're just holding it for the next guy.
