OK. So the ideal is connectors up, but that is not possible. See this pic:
Connector has room to face down, but cannot face up.
I did (2) things to help hold them in position. First, I swapped the 2.5mm spacers for 2mm thick oil change crush washers. That tightened things a little bit. Then I tie-wrapped the cabling to roughly make the injectors comfortable in the correct position.
I had problems with the #2 cylinder injector, so I cut the EV1 connectors from the main harness and the converter harnesses and used them as pigtails. I used the funky shrink and solder things that IIRC Ian pointed us to. I did have some issue with the non-tined wires wetting properly and so had to re-do 3 of the 8 connections.
In the end, the injectors passed the MS test sequence and the car started right up.
