Hi, so I installed 30 lbs injectors, first installed them into the fuel rail, they are tight going in, but is it normal that you can see the o ring when looking at the injector bottom that goes into the manifold, looks like they don't fit as tight on the bottom, like they are pushed in, but doesn't look like there is a groove that the o ring pops into, is this normal?

Use some motor oil or Vaseline on the O rings prior to installation. It will make everything fit smoother.
