I believe a Cleveland intake won't span the width of a M or 400 ... when using a Cleveland intake on them they add a spacer between each head and the intake...

   Are you sure you have a 351C block..?A
  It's starting to sound like you might have a 351M/400 Block which has a
  Deck Height 1.1 inches taller than the 351C.A

    Thanks, Mike. That was another aspect I had not considered.
    However it would seem to me that the metal valley pan, which
    incorporates a paper gasket also, would likely be thicker than just
    the paper gasket that has been used and thus raise the manifold and
    increase the gap even more? I think trying the performer manifold
    tomorrow may provide some new clues.
    Thanks for all the suggestions and wisdom, keep them coming.
