Need thoughts on these injectors for 3vze

I received my replacement injectors and plan to install them today. I happened to be on ebay this morning and saw these:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-4Runner-Pickup-89-95-3VZE-3-0L-V6-upgrade-fuel-injectors-w-video-/261146725006?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D163%26meid%3D6724493154831415448%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D1088%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D271143121806%26
What do you guys think? They look like they would work better from the video but I don't have a lot of experience with this. Before I install the ones that just showed up I'm entertaining the possibility of these.

Thanks in advance..

My thoughts from a previous thread...

My thoughts since then...

Everybody that's used them, on either engine, seem to be happy with them. No bad reviews yet. So I probably still would...if I could...which I can't...

Here's a 3VZ-FE Flamethrower Injector Install thread from Pirate.Which is actually being performed on a 3VZ-E.

Thank MudHippy. Thanks for the link to the pirate install and review and i found the original thread from Flamethrower offering the injectors to be evaluated. I decided to go ahead with them and send the remans back to Rock Auto. Save some bucks and get to keep my cores. I will post up how it goes when I get them.

Learning as much as I can on this motor, thanks for posting up such great stuff over the years.

Saved that link, was an excellent write-up. Thanks for sharing. Injectors and tuneup are all in line for my 1991 3.0

My injectors showed up 2 days after ordering. They were packed good and have new seals, orings, and spacers. Cosmetically a few scratches but that's expected. The plugs work perfectly. I put the truck back together last night and it runs very nice.

I don't have previous numbers to compare these to, I purchased them as an alternative to cleaning to injectors that were in the truck. $150 for these or $120-$180 for a cleaning service so I went with these.

Ill update after a few weeks of use for those that may be interested and for future searchers.
