Default Best fuel injector for a LT1

I think my 94 injectors are going bad. I called the local Chevy dealer and got a quote of $102 for one. What other brands would you trust for a daily driver and on a budget.

Jon is a model of the perfect vendor. He will fix you up with a set of flow matched Bosch IIIs for a good price and stand behind his product. He goes the extra mile. Rare these days!

Jon is awesome. He took the time to call me and talk to me about my issues. Well the issues with the car. I think that there is no help for the "other" issues.

Injectors don't go bad slowly. They can be good, dirty or dead. Buy fuel injector cleaner and sthetoscope. Listen to each injector clicking after running cleaner thru gas tank. If it doesn't click check wiring. If you have one bad injector replace it with one from junkyard for $20. If you have extra 2-4 hundred bucks and you don't know how to get rid of them, I'll give you my email so you can send me money by Paypal...

I wouldn't waste my time installing an injector out of the boneyard.

Listening for a click only tells you if the injector solenoid is firing - not if it's plugged and not passing all the fuel it should in the correct pattern it should

Actually, injecotrs can degrade slowly as they become contaminated or plugged
