Default Fuel injector ID please

I found 8 of these in a box of parts I bought. They look like L98 injectors but I'm not sure. I haven't messed with an L98 since 2002. See pic and let me know your thoughts. Thanks. The guy I bought the parts from upgraded his CFI in his 82 to TPI. I suspect he put bigger than stock injectors in and these came out of the TPI unit he bought.

Also, is there an easy way to verify if these are any good?

.... There are numbers cast into the injector housing on both sides near the top ... they are small ... write down all the numbers ( both sides ) and google fuel injector flow chart ... click on Stan Weiss' flow site and using the search function enter the numbers and see what turns up on the tables ...

TPI fit and also most early GM
Nice flowing injector you can pick up pretty cheap

Tally Ho the only way is to have them flow tested.
I flowed a bunch in my shop last night and they are much better then the crapy maltec's
flowed even, good spray and they will take a lot of psi to boot

PS Stans chart has a lot of errors on it for what it's worth

The injector pictured will have part number 5235301 on it. Those were used in the 1987-1988 305 TPI F-body's. They are easy to identify because of the opaque colored spacer above the lower o-ring. The L98 injectors with the aluminum pintle cap are part number 5235302 and have a red colored spacer.

Thanks. This falls in line with some of the other F-body parts that were in the big box of stuff I bought. The guy I bought the stuff from had converted his 82 Vette from CFI to TPI. I'm guessing he went with higher psi injectors. There was a stock airbox and distributor in the box as well for the same vintage F-body.
