The little hole does not matter. Note the groove around the cylinder. The fuel fills the groove and finds its way out the hole in the bottom half. It's the six other holes that need to line up with the input holes on the top half. If you want to use the little hole to index, fine, but understand what really needs to line up here.

Don't straighten the lines. Follow the procedure I added to your website and have since updated on this site and you can match all of the flow rates in "as the car will run" trim. Note that my update on this site has the flow specs. Same title: CIS-E Tuning I will add that info to your site as well one day soon.

EDIT: I love that you do this and post pictures. Your information will help quite a few people in the future....maybe even help you as you forget some of what you have learned, like the rest of us who are old enough to be your dad. :-)
