yes they will fit, and you might want to go out and buy some vacume hosses because most likley your gonna crack and break some or just replace them all while you got the UIM off (uper intake manifold). its not to hard to do just takes time.

87.5 was the crossover point for high vs. low impedance injectors. If your car is an early '87, then you will have low impedance and you will have to bypass your resistor pack to run the '88 high impedance injectors.
