Lube the o-rings on the injectors with petrolium jelly or light grease, line them all up on 1 side at a time and the rail will seat with little effort. Make sure there is no corrosion or dirt built up in the sockets where the injectors seat, this is a big problem on the lower intake and something I usually clean out before installing the injectors.

Put a little light oil on the o rings and they'll go in easier for ya.
