Default Worth it to service these injectors?

Hi, I picked up a set of used Lucas 38lb injectors (whatever ones that came with the 4th gen F-body Vortech G-Trim kit) with about 40k G-Trim miles on them that I am planning to use with a cam similar to a CheaTR v.3 (219/230 .605/.605 115+2). Is it worth my time/money to have these injectors serviced and flow tested, should I just slap them on and not worry (after tuning), or should I get new ones?

IMO,If you've already got them, get them reconditioned.
$120 to make them like new, or $300-$450 for new injectors.

If you plan on going with any power adders go with a set of new 42 lb..

Thanks! How long will this special be running and how would I get this discount when ordering? I'm super low on cash right now due to the rest of the motor build...
