Default Are these genuine Holley injectors?

I ordered these off eBay, advertised and priced as genuine Holley EFI injectors. 36LB, part number 522-368. The box shows no signs of being from Holley other than the generic part number sticker, and the injectors themselves have no information or specs printed on the bodies. Are these real, or do I need to chase my money down?

It’s not really out of the realm to think that advertising an actual Holley part at a Holley price would get you a real part…

Regardless…just looking for confirmation if they are genuine or not.

I googled holleys website and from the looks of it they put the part number on the injector body. I've never owned holley injectors but I'd definitely be suspicious on no part number

My Holley 120's didn't come in a box like that they came in a sealed plastic board thing. The part number should be on the upper part of the injector not the shiny part

So just to update, they are fake and I got refunded. I’ll upload some pictures, but the key differences were incorrect packaging, no identifying data inscribed on the body, and the nozzle lacked the divider like genuine Holley injectors do. The o-rings are also the wrong color, and the inlet port also looks different to me.

The seller seemed honest and stated they had sourced them from here, who are also advertising them as genuine Holley: https://www.redline-motorsports.com/...ts/hly-522-368

Be careful out there and always inspect your parts!

ive ended up with some fake parts from amazon and ebay so for things that are known to have fakes out there i make sure i only buy from certain sources. it sucks having to navigate the market that way, but globalization.

General rule of thumb, don't buy anything off ebay unless you want knock off ****. No legit seller is using ebay as a webstore.

Plenty of them do, in fact most of the big name brands (Holley, Ridetech, etc) have eBay stores that I can occasionally get free shipping at, which is huge for us Alaska based people. Real ones are already on their way from Summit though, and I even decided to end up with 42lb instead of 36lb instead!

True, and then buy from the KNOWN factory source. I don't think that happened first time around here.
Hence Post #2....

Yeah, not that interested in paying $50 a pop for shipping small parts up here each time.
