Default Installing 30# injectors on my LT1, and have a ? about the clips>

I have the injectors in the fuel rail, ready to go back on the intake, but the stock clips that hold the injector to the fuel rail won't fit. The injectors are SVO 30#. Is there a trick to get these to work, or will I be okay without them. Thanks.

Thanks man.

Chris, the injectors have a grove cut into them for clips, they just don't go all the way around the injector to allow them to fasten.

I have never been able to get the clips to work with SVO injectors and the LT1's fuel rails either.

Hmmm and I have never had a problem with the LT1, stock fuel rails and stock clips, with the SVOs.....go figure.
