They are the number one injector sold here in the U.S. Even Rochester/Lucas & Delphi are used by RC and Precision (Except for Precision's New Siemen Deka Mototrons that they are now using). 80% of the same people that you're asking, are actually using the injectors you're inquiring about.. some don't even know it.

You're fine

Because they are not machined to work with a honda & they are not flow benched in a set etc...

Correct. Buy the injector's already setup for your engine application.

we buy our injectors from a delphi distributor that has in house flow bench and injector cleaning. Thus, allowing us to have matched sets. We lathe them in house to cut down on cost.

delphi is an OEM MFG that builds larger injectors too

nothing to worry about because they're one of the primary suppliers as Shodan Mac has said
