Default 6.0L LQ4 to LS6 intake fuel rail problems

Building a 6.0L LQ4.

I bought a LS6 bare. I was planning on using my Fuel Rails and injectors (they match my wire harness)

I tried to move the injectors and rails over but the rails sit up a lot higher then the mounts to the LS6 intake. My injectors seem to be a lot taller.

Do I need to make some adapter brackets to make this work?

Also the crossover fuel rail sits up really high. Is it possible to make another one or can you buy the LS6 crossover?

Any good links on anyone else that has gone from lQ4 intake to LS6 intake using LQ4 rails and injectors.

Thanks

I would try and locate some ls1 rails, they usually go for $30-$50

You want the rails to fit perfectly so the injectors are at the right angle..

Do LS1 fuel rails have an supply and return fuel line?

My current tank has a supply line and a return line.
