Question Remanufactured spider?

GM Vortec Spider Fuel Injector - CP101
Has anyone used one of these remanufactured spider assemblies?
For under $200, I'm tempted to get one as opposed to just replacing the FPR...
Thanks.

My dad put one in his. Its been about 8 months and so far so good. If you wanna save a lil money just buy the nut kit and fpr. then run some injector cleaner and be done with it.

Thanks.
I know now where to get the spider injector if I need to.
I think I will take your advice and just do the FPR and nut kit...

I purcheased a remanned one from oreillys and it failed pretty fast, got another one and it's still working 5 months later but might be acting up again. Just replace the fuel regulator for $50 and save your money since the regulator seems to be the greatest weakness of this design.
