Lightbulb fuel leaks? injector 0-rings

hey you guys with modifed fuel systems and different injectors did you ever have any problems with leaks? i got some 1200s from rc engineering for my 88turbo motor they came with new seals for the lower part to sit in. but you can turn the injector when its all tighten down, now i got my fuel system going and i flipped on my bosch pump and pressure shot up to 65 psi and i could see fuel trying to bubble out of the lower ring on the injectors.
i turned the pressure down to 42psi but should i worry about that? should the seals dry up over time and make a better seal around the injector. any help would be appreciated, i just dont want to fire this beast up again and blow up all my progress.

On my vert I can turn the fuel injectors no problem and they dont leak the car runs perfect... Now on the cosmo swap I used some Viton O rings from the local rubber supply place, and the injectors are in there tightly...
