Default Injectors wont clip onto manifold??

I'm putting an ls6 intake on and I can't get the stock injectors to clip on to the manifold.
I've put dielectric grease on them and nothing..
I'm going to go outside and bend the bracket that bolts the fuel rail on away a little bit because it seems to be bottoming out before they seat all the way.
Has anyone had this problem? Or ran the motor without them being 'clicked' into place?

I think it is seated in all the way, just not making a distinct click noise I was under the impression it would make.

I think its more of a "feel" click than a "hear" click. Once you bolt the rails down wiggle the injector and see if it will push in. If nothing happends with a small push, you should be set.
