Default Ok started my L92 EFI Victor Jr install, have a few issues

So got my LS3 intake off. took the injectors off and guess what. THEY are way to short to go with the railes and mounting brakets that came with the rail kit, i kinda thought that would happen sense the rails sit so high.
So I'll be looking for the regulor hight LS2 style injects to use with the set up.
The Edelbrock rails don't have a grove for the injector retainer. So thats the way the injectors are held in place.

Second, but not that bad, the intake needs a little trimming on the outside of the intake runners. Or maybe I need to get the intake milled to?
This won't be to bad, think it because the heads on my car are milled a bit.
So all in all it not to bad
I'll try to get some pictures out later tonight or tomorrow

FAST makes 33, 46, and 57 lb/hr LS2 injectors. I should be picking up a set of 46#ers soon I hope.

I thought it was supposed to work with the shorter injectors, got this from Edelbrock website:

Aluminum Fuel Rails
CNC machined from aluminum extrusions, these fuel rails have a 9/16" i.d. fuel passage, a flow-through design and 3/8" pipe threads on both ends. All hardware is included. Bracket stands included match with standard injectors (2.650" O-ring spacing) or pico injectors (1.50" O-ring spacing) as indicated.

You may find that the taller injectors require a different (thicker) o-ring. I run Ford Green Tops (42lbs) and had to run the Katech o-rings with the FAST fuel rails..

I think it is, the most iv seen a LS3 intake flow is 330-340 cfm, the ported Ls3 head can flow into the 370-380's. Plus the Victor Jr work all the way up to 7500 the LS3 fall off around 6500-6800 depending on work to it.
