I think you may have answered your own question lol. The rails seem like they're for 60mm injectors. What size are the top and bottom of the injectors? For the bottom, if they're 14mm, you need to buy the injector boss so it'll fit the housing.

i just put the bigger o ring back on the bottom and it seems fine, but obviously the injector sits higher, i emailed FFE and maybe they will try to resolve it.. thanks

The FFE rail is designed to work with Injector Dynamics injectors. If you look at the directions on FFE's website, they say to remove the pintle cap off the bottom of the injector and install the 2 O-rings they supply. With Bosch EV14 injectors, don't remove anything. Install the injector as is. Depending what height you get, you may have to shim the rail up with one m8 washer under each post. Also, get rid of those crappy pressed in aluminum spacers. Use the o-ringed spacers from FFE. They seal better and are much easier to remove.
