Lucas were popular and worked well for the Mustang guys back in the day. They were a good brand then, but I dont know if they are still around or not. I also want to say they are disk style as opposed to pintle which supposedly makes the Lucas a better design.

EDIT: Well after more research, it seems that disk style injectors are not that great after all. Many people recommend pintle over disk, especially due to idle issues with disk style.

I have used a set on my Z28 and the WOT was good but other than that they were junk. We put lots of tuning on the street and on the dyno also. Went with a set of EV6 injectors which had a great spray pattern and were very easy to tune. Just my experience and have heard the same from many others.
