Default Help with this maybe? Edelbrock intake.

http://forums.edelbrock.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=2527

Check that thread. Dont know of many people that might be doing this. But its about the 7139 Edelbrock intake manifold for LS-Based engines.

But as a general question... what do you do about mating these injectors into the intake. They are 8.1 Marine injectors, they fit into the rail fine.. but when i try to mate the bottom of the injector to the intake they seem like the only thing to hold them in is the tiny bit of resistance the o ring gives and the bracket i guess, im just worried that im missing something here.

I think you need to use car style injectors or lengthen the fuel rail brackets.

The car ones are shorter. Depending on the applications etc etc.

Oh alrighty. I've been trying to find a pic comparing the two style injectors, but no luck.

I'm thinking I am using the wrong fuel rails... I'll call Edelbrock on monday and see whats up. Thanks!
