Guys, The injectors are 460cc/min RX7 NA top feed injectors. They have a little rubber o-ring around the top of them. So this means that i just need to make a fuel rail with tubes coming down that are the right size and they'll go over this little o-ring (with some force i assume to seal in 3 bar of fuel) and then when the fuel rail is attached to the manifold this also ensures the injector can't `fall out' of the fuel rail?
Geordie, that picture of the manifold without injectors (and of the fuel rail without injectors) would be invaluable if available. Thanks. And thanks to everyone.
