Default blue tops and y8 fuel fail fitment issues help!!!!

i got a y8 fuel rail, and a dsm 450 blue tops.

the injectors are shorter, so the fuel rail retaining bolts are too long.

They fit fine for many many people. Are you sure you have the correct injectors?

twist the studs out that mount the fuel rail and use bolts.

they shouldnt be that much shorter really tho, I question what injectors you really have. In reality the color means jack ----, do they say 450 somewhere on them?

mine were too tall, and i think that is normal, so unless you were using aftermarket injectors before, these do not seem like 450's

its about the size of the seal difference.

i am just iffy on putting the things on without the fuelrail retaining bolts, and the rail comes off. i dont got any bolts at the moment to hold it all together. i got a zap strap on 1 side.. and thats all i could find...
