Default Fast fuel rails bracket fix

Sorry if the title is misleading,

But every thread iv seen has indeed acknowledged the fact that fast fuel rails for the 102 intake are garbage, but not one of them has a follow up solution.

I realize the brackets that come with it allow the rail to move around or even up a little which makes it push off the injectors, I'm really tired of having to fix this issue every week or so, is there any aftermarket brackets for sale for these? Anyone made custom ones?

Pictures would be GREAT. I know a lot of people have had this issue before so I know it should be a lot of feedback and help. Thanks!

Anyone? I know it's a known issue.

Mine seem to sort of bend inwards towards the intake causing the o-rings to show but don't even budge if I push down on them. I can drain the fuel outa the rails and re-set the rails back onto the injectors fully, but when pressurized they pop up again.

Again any feedback or responses with what you've done are great!

Put a small washer in between the stanchion and the intake where you bolt them down. I had to put a washer on both the rear ones. It pitched the rear of the rails up and front down and made
o-rings seat. No leaks at all.

My usual one leaking is in the rear, so il try putting a washer in the front. Thanks. Although the front also looks as if it's start leaking if I even touched it with the o rings being visible under the rail, so I'm not sure how it would do for the front. Worth a try I guess!

Did you put the thicker O rings on your injectors that fast sends with the kit?

Bought the setup used, there was already o rings on the injectors along with o rings in the intake box that were the same size.
