Default So This is Going to Leak, Right?

Jegs rails, Typhoon/Speedmaster intake, truck injectors. The compression height is good but when I tighten rails down it seems to pull everything forward causing the injectors to sit cocked in the intake. Same on both sides.

I can only imagine this is going to be a bad leak, but maybe not? Regardless it looks like crap and I am wondering if anyone has had a similar issue?

Why not get a set of adapters for the truck injectors to make them longer?

Well the new injectors have the same alignment issue, needed an excuse for new ones anyways. The issue is clearly the brackets provided with the rails. They push the rails out and back too far, not sure if it is bad enough to leak.
