Those shouldn't need an adapter to work for your application. I'm assuming these are Bosch EV1 injectors with the minitimer/jetronic electrical connector.

Default Ford Racing blue injectors

If these are the injectors I think they are then they have a USCar connector like the LS2, LS3 and LS7 engine use (and many other newer vehicles).

You will need adapter harnesses (see example) to use these or you can get new connectors and replace the connectors on your harness (see example). When we switch injector connector types we prefer to just replace the connectors so that you get a cleaner installation and have fewer connections to go bad.

One warning on these injectors is that they may be the Ford Motorsport twin-cone injectors. If that is the case they will have two streams of fuel coming from the injector. This is designed to aim fuel at the back of each valve with one injector feeding two runners/two intake valves. On a single intake valve engine like a LS1 you will end up having fuel spraying against the sides of the intake runners resulting in poor fuel atomization and possible low speed/idle driveability problems. The same problem exists if you try to use some of the Toyota Supra and other DOHC engine injectors.

An easy way to check the injectors would be to take them to someone that has an ASNU or similar injector cleaning/flow testing bench and you could see what the spray pattern looks like.

Agree and also agree with this:
