Default Manifold machining

I recently attempted to machine a manifold assembly. I mounted the assembly using the carburetor mounting to fasten it to an angle plate on my milling machine. In doing so I noticed that the manifold mounting surface is not perpendicular to the carburetor surface. I measure approximately 0.024" difference from one side to the other on the 2" width. Does anyone know if there is an angle at which the manifold should be mounted when machining or will machining them perpendicular to the carburetor cause any problem? I would appreciate any information that I receive. Thanks. Don/WI
