Default Nasty Performance fuel rails.. what am I not seeing??

So here I am trying to install my new rails onto the stock LS6 intake, but something just isn't 'right', or I'm just not seeing something perhaps. The brackets the rails come with are drilled with multiple holes, but I can't quite make sense of it or see how it attaches the rail to the manifold. Take a look:





So I see a hole with a recessed opening for the bracket to manifold, however the other drilled holes run in directions that I cannot use to bolt the rails down. Bottom line, what am I not seeing or doing wrong??

There should be 2 recessed bolt holes going through the sides of the rails. Use your supplied allen head bolts to attach the rails to the mount blocks, through these holes. As far as the hole through the side of each mount block they're not used .

Nope. Just checked my rails, they're solid on the sides, the only additional bolt holes are drilled at the bottom between the injector openings.

Did you buy these from Nasty or used elsewhere ?

IMO, you're either missing some mount pieces that go between the blocks and the rails, that's IF he redesigned the mounts; doubtful.

Or, most likely you've got the wrong rails.
Those mount blocks are correct, but it looks like you've got the wrong rails.

The rail should look like this:

Purchased it new from Nasty, actually picked up the whole 'Stage 3' line kit for F-bodies, guess it's just the wrong rails. I'll give them a call in the morning, thanks for the feedback though!!
