Full race 12A How to install jets on Eshaft?

I am building a full on race 12 A engine with bridgeporting, 48 MM Weber, lightened rotors, carbon apex seals, Aluminum flywheel etc. I want to install the 200 Weber jets in the eccentric shaft. I must be missing something because the jets are smaller then the threaded hole for the stock squatters. Can someone tell me what I am missing here?

You pull out the threaded stock squirter (the part with the flatblade slot in it) cut off the little ears and press the Weber jet into that. Or get the Mazda Motorsports ones that just replace the threaded stock squirter with one with the right size hole.

Thanks I thought that would work that way but over the years I learned to not assume anything. You know the saying on how to spell assume!
