I know nothing about the injectors or company, but I see the injectors are rated at 17# and specified for a Fiero. The stock 2.8 Fiero V6 used 15 # injectors at 43.5 #. These may make a stock engine run a little rich, but might work well in the 3.1 or 3.4 which did use 17# injectors. Also, the Fiero used a pintle style injector rather than the multec disk stylet injector. Stock ECM's sometimes have a little problem operating them efficiently.

If you decide against these, check out www.fuelinjectorconnection.com They're a little closer to you and are wonderful people to work with for either rebuilding, rebuilt, or new injectors.

Just FYI on fuel injector connection- I sent them a set of Bosch pintle injectors from my 86 gt and when they came back the car ran so lean it was undriveable. I reassembled everything multiple times and the problem only went away when I installed a set of used multec injectors. To their credit, they did give me a partial refund.

Where did you find feedback? I'd like to see what's happening. I didn't see anything on their site.

I think he was referring to the ebay feedback being very high, very positive.

85 + 86 used Bosch Pintle injectors, 87 + 88 used Rochester Multec injectors. I found this out by pulling a few different engines apart. GM claimed the new Multec injector was "unable to clog" and "never needed cleaning" We know thats wrong now :P. If I remember right there is even a TSB on the Multec injectors stating they don't need to be cleaned.

As for the company, I am unsure of their quality, but those are just reman injectors. They seem like they may work, however they look like Pintle style injectors in pic 1, and in the picture that shows their base, it looks like a 4 port multec injector. The Pintle injectors have caps and the Multec injectors are much more solid and beefy looking at the tip.

like this:

EDIT:

88s should definately have Multecs, 87 was the switch year so most likely some came with Multecs, some with Bosch Pintles

The Fuel Injector Connection is a great place to buy injectors. If anything goes wrong with the order, they'll make it right immediately. Their prices are very fair, also.

The 17# injectors I get from them for the 3.4 swaps with stock ECM are the BMW injectors. Part # 17LK7 made by Bosch. Another number I have is 180 150 941 or 970 but these are 15#. Both flow rates are at 43.5 psi regulator pressure. They run slightly lean, but not enough to cause manifold glow. Adjusting the BMI in the chip will correct the problem. FIC has changed their website design and for the life of me, I can't find anything without calling or emailing them.
