Southbay injector question

Anyone running southbay fuel injectors use the fuel rail retaining clips? Since the new injectors seem smaller than stock and when I use retaining clip they don't seem to go all the way in the fuel rail. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

southbay injectors don't need the retaining clips, the fuel rail holds them down perfectly fine.

It wouldn’t hurt to pick up an extra o-ring set as well, even with the soap I messed a couple o rings up on the install. And make sure you put the injectors into the manifold first, you probably already know that based off the instructions in the box but just figured I’d mention it
