hum... the thing is, i'm not too sure how to grind it down properly (as in make sure the surface is 100% flat). i could borrow a grinder from my dad, but how do you grind it perfectly straight/flat?

i was going to get a counter sunk 14mm allen bolt, but sourcing a bolt that size is kind of difficult, only places i found that sells it was somewhere in the UK and Australia, and they both don't ship to NA.

Zero you should run a gate elbow to give yourself some clearance.

Here is a example of a couple different direction elbows so you dont have to grind







You could just change the direction the Waste gate is located-- I believe this is what Meltman is trying to show you. GL
