Default Spiders and Nuts

Where do you guys get these so cheaply?? The nut kit alone through the cheapest dealer in town is $130. The spider assembly is $600. Once I got into my intake I found bad line all around and need to replace everything but the main injector. Any advice or exact part #s. Thanks
Is there not a part # for just the spider injectors? I have to buy the entire CPI?

Typically the whole spider assembly is replaced as a unit (including the FPR & injector). I have never seen just the lines & poppet nozzles replaced separately. I know they can be on the SCFI spider, but it is cost prohibitive if you have to replace more than one.

Anyway, I have found Lindertech.com's pricing to be great. They sell a complete CPI service kit which includes the plenum gasket, nut kit, and CPI spider for $300.

That seems kind of odd since they pop in and out so easily. Since they are so prone to fail but the injector isn't it seems like they would be available. Oh well, thanks again.
After thinking about it I guess I need to comprehend it is a technology/part that went out 12 years ago. lol

Yup the cost for a CPI are an outrage..i paid $733+$23 for the plenum gasket!
If a shop would have done this job for me i would have had to sell a couple kidneys on E-bay.
