haha im just waiting on my last two parts!
I had one seating position for the injector on my fuel rail that was bent, previous owner had used the stock 12v vr6 fuel rail but with the short runner intake, they had to snap the brackets that held the two hard lines of the fuel rail and bend it so that he could jam it into place against the SRI, which made one of the hard lines press up against the outside of where the injector sits and bend it
so i ordered the 034 Motorsports Billet fuel rail which should be here thursday, and I need a clutch master, I just have to go take it out of the other car which im being lazy about
will takle pics of how she sits after the rain stops!

killinn meeeeeeeeee
so it may make sense to me why before they had used the oem fuel rail and just snapped the brackets and jammed it into place
my question is, and it seems obvious to me that its not good, but since the fuel rail is sitting against the top of the SRI I cant push it down far enough to get the injectors to sit perfectly into the lower intake manifold. the injectors are being pushed up slightly and i feel like that will obviously create a leak problem.
does anyone know if this is enough to mess with the sealing of the injectors, or if this might be okay? im really not trying to get my SRI re-fabricated just to fit a fuel rail
can see it sitting on the sri here
and on bottom of injector you can see the slight angle theyre sitting

"having a big turbo is like having a big dick; it's not immediately obvious to everyone, but you have to just rest assured that when it comes time to put it to use, you won't need to explain a whole lot afterwards"

no not yet, im waiting for my clutch master cylinder which should be in in a few days, and tomorrow i should be getting the rest of my fittings for the fuel rail to get that finished up so all I will have to do is swap out the clutch master, bleed it, and start it
