Default Anyone use these EBay Injectors?

Looks like a decent deal compare to FAST for twice the money. Thoughts?

Is it worth saving $150 to install rebuilt parts?

There are rebuilders and there are rebuilders. I've bought a lot of rebuilt parts--no injectors--for my '69. Many have been bad right out of the box. Every rebuilder claims to be top quality and 100% tested. Many are lying.
You have a c6 that is worth $25k+. This is probably a 1 time job.
Will you do the job yourself? If not, any replacement/warranty labor would be on you.
For me, I would pay the $200? extra and get factory new, name brand part, and a little more peace of mind.
The "refurbished injectors" guide above appears to be written by another vendor. Doesn't apply to every part or seller, nor required by ebay.

Always buy the best injectors you can afford. having either no injector data or bad injector data will make your engine run like crap, if it will even run at all.
If an injector has been modified or rebuilt, the original data is no good.

Being that AUS was local we decided to start running their injectors...I have NEVER had a single one fail..or even need cleaning after years of service...

AUS is wayyy cheaper then Ids... Example a set of 60# injectors run RETAIL $500

I strongly recommend this injector company....
Do you have a link?

I have been talking to EBay seller TLF performance. His injectors are about $250. He claims they are rebuilt in the USA ,flow matched and a 1 year warranty. Stated he has sold over 200 sets without issues.

What do these people do to get more flow out of them?

Sayfoo is right. I'm ALWAYS looking for budget deals and corners to cut, but after a LOT of research, I've decided that injectors won't be one of those corners. I'm just gonna save an extra paycheck and buy ID injectors brand new. It'll cost me an extra $200-300 over another brand or rebuilds/used, BUT I know I'm getting a quality product straight out of the box.

If you do decide to pull the trigger on the eBay injectors, I get it. But do us a favor and post a review of how they work! There are always a lot of threads asking questions about eBay parts, but very few that post feedback/results.

I would call BS to the "OEM remanufactured in bulk package" claim. No OEM remanufactures injectors. There are a lot of aftermarket injector remanufactures out there, their knowledge and skill is all over the place. I have access to OEM flow rigs and have checked some aftermarket injectors, I would never put them in my vehicles. It only takes one bad injector to ruin an engine.

A good dynamically flow matched injector with the correct data is the best investment that can be made on a performance vehicle. When a customer comes to me with random injectors and no associated injector data, I will not tune the vehicle. The fuel injector and matching data is the BACKBONE of the entire tune.

I sell dynamically flow matched 60lb and 80lb Siemens Deka injectors with the correct matching data btw. There is a lot of incorrect injector data out there for these, I have about 12 different data sets I have downloaded for the 80s lol. There is 1 that is correct though, which I have scaled for LS fuel pressure and I offer it to people who buy a set of injectors from me. I install and tune them on alot of vehicles with success. Thanks
