Injector Height Difference, Will they Work?

I am currently installing siemens 60 lb injectors in place of my Bosch III 30 lb injectors. The siemens are about 1/8" shorter in height when measuring from o ring to o ring. Would I just be able to remove the washers that you use on the aftermarket tpi intakes to bring it down and make these work?

Yup; might have to grind down a bit off of the little boss things that they sit on too, but it doesn't take much.

If you make sure the little clip things are on the fuel rail end, the manifold end is ALOT less critical.
