850cc in Primary fuel rail how to?

I've searched, so please spare me the ball busting

Has anyone done a write up on how to install the stock 850CC injectors into the primary rail.

If not, can someone explain what has to be modified for this to work.

Thanks

Okay,

but that does not tell me how to do it myself. Can you clarify how the double o ring thing works?

I found that some extra o-rings were needed to keep excess fuel from finding its way into the engine.

Click here for a picture of an 850cc injector with an extra "spacer" o-ring to force the original o-ring to rest as close possible to the injector tip.

Click here for a picture of the fuel-safe o-ring not installed.

Another alternative would be to grind/mill/file about 1/8" from the top of the primary injector rail. This would allow the 850cc injectors to rest a little deeper in the rail and make a good seal at the tip o-ring.

You can mill .125 thousands off of the top of the rail . The shorter injector will then sit lower and the 0-ring will seal . No need for extra o-rings .Just insert the injector and replace the top .I have read that some people file or sand the .125 off .
