As I gather parts to go back to FI, got these from Injector elbows from Pelican. They just don't look correct to me. The 90 degree bend is fine, but the short end doesn't look like it has enough length to go over either the injector end or the fuel rail and still have enough room to get the clamp on without digging into the rubber of the elbow.

I have some on order from Tangerine, but he was out and I thought I'd get these from Pelican in the meantime. Almost $13 each at Pelican.

Opinions on if these will work. They don't look like it to me.

I remember mine being a little more symmetrical but I think the short end attaches to the rail. Also now that I think of it, I also recall reusing the old clamps on the Pelican elbows because the ones supplies by Tangerine didn't tighten sufficiently (probably because of the smaller OD of the Pelican elbow). Of course when I got the Tangerine elbows the new clamps fit perfectly.
