Default Silverado TVS lower performance tub problem

So after repeatedly being to told by Superchargers Online and Magnacharger that this would interchange I got the TVS 2300 Performance tub for my 2011 Silverado 6.0 with the TVS 1900. The pedestal mounts are not there, but no big deal. Drilled and tapped holes, made spacers and got it so the rails will line up. Then noticed that they made the lower tub to sit the injectors straight up and down vs being at an angle like everything is including my TVS 1900. Anybody else run into this issue? After fighting 8 hours today to get fuel leaks from injectors to quit I was able to fire it up. Runs horrible like a bad vacuum leak so Id assume I got the top sealed but the bottom is creating a vacuum leak. Of course this is the daily so I'm in a world of **** right now.

How do you port match without the heads being there?

If you saw the lower tub as it comes you would know what i mean. It at least matches the shape of the ports...

This is how they come.


This is mine that was worked.

Correct gasket matched "ported" and is claimed to give 20-40rwhp gains. But doesn't work on the TVS 1900 because of the injector angle change. I just found some aftermarket fuel rails that sit the injector straight. I'll make my own brackets and fuel lines to connect to the stock fuel line. Ordered some LS9 injectors as well since the stock Maggie injectors were at over 80% duty cycle already. Called Magnacharger who transferred me from one person to the next and I have not heard a work back so took care of it myself.

I had a bunch of BS from Magnuson speaking with Tim...I really don't think he even knows what the hell a supercharger is or does!
