Best Source for fuel injectors (stock)

At 211K mi my 87 base has leaky injectors. She floods after a spirited run, doesn't have the pep she had when I bought her (65K ago) and the fumes are really getting obnoxious. I have an engine I'm saving for parts for, but I need my car to run right in the mean time. So, where's the best place to get stock replacement injectors?

I forgot all about them. I'll have to dig out that catalog. Thanks for the reminder.

I found fuel injectors for my 86 at thepartsbin.com. They are only $48.19 or $37.94 depending on the chassis range. I haven't ordered them yet-was going to do that tonight. Does anyone find it wierd that they have them so extremely cheap? Almost seems to good to be true........

If you're smelling fuel, please make sure it's not the Pulsation Damper. I wouln't want you to have an engine fire.

Yeah I did not think of that, you should check the Pulsation damper first and replace it anyway because they should be replaced every 100k miles or so.

I'll definately replace the pulsation damper, but the flooding is a sure fire sign that the injectors are leaky. That's the only way to flood an EFI engine (assuming stock hardware everywhere).
