Maggie fuel leak-need help

I installed a maggie 2300 on my Camaro, the install was pretty
staight forward. However, I am getting a fuel leak where the
barb for the fuel line attaches to the fuel rail. I have tightened it
to the torque spec, it still leaked so I tightened it a little more and
it still leaks. At this point I do not want to tighten it any more. Any advice from those who have installed a maggie?

Do you know if your fuel rail attachment is an 37 degree AN fitting? Without knowing the type of attachment, it's hard to help. You may want to call Magnuson and ask them for the correct fix.
