Default Neglected mount belong? Injectors Installed right?

I just removed my turbo system, AIR and boost pump and installed smaller injectors. Before starting the car I looked over everything and found two things.

Any idea where this was suppose to get bolted?
Location: drivers side, in between header and firewall. That silver bolt is the last header bolt. I believe part of that bundle are for the drivers side 02 sensors.





Do these injectors look seated? The rail is bolted down and the top retaining clips are secured.

That would help, wouldn't it.

It bolts to one of the bell housing bolts. Dont worry,, I didnt bolt mine back down either.

As long as the wires are away from the exhaust, it wont be an issue.

Thanks Bill, I was worried for a second that it was a ground.

I'm trying to remember if it was under the bolt behind the engine that held down the AIR system.

Yes indeed the visual map worked!

There is a stud coming out of the block, pointing directly rear wards of the car.
The stud is directly on the block, just below the cyl head.
Under the car & looking upwards, you will be able to see it.
That's where the clip goes on an LS/6 block.

I've never had my injectors out but my stock one's go further downward (1/4" ) or so than your's in the picture.
Hope this helps.
