Help Modifying Bosch 1600cc Injectors

I purchased some Bosch 1600cc injectors and didn't realize they weren't already modified to fit an FC. According to this site: http://www.rotaryheads.com/modifications/bosch-1600cc/ they have to be modified by cutting off some of the top plastic. It says he used a Dremel but to "not nick the metal". Any tips on what attachment to use or an alternative method? That seems like a risky undertaking.

I think I used an x-acto knife.

We are just talking about taking the flange off the thin plastic pintle cover right?

I gave my friends dad 2 6-packs of beer to turn the plastic down professionally in the lathe. I really think you should do something similar.

I modified the top already but now need to do the bottom. Someone in another thread said I need to replace what's there with S5 pintle caps? But I can use what's there but just trim it down?
