I am pretty sure you can pick some up at your local auto parts store.

What about the junkyards?? IIRC, all the MPFI GM cars have the same clippy jobbers (2.8L, 3.1L, etc)

Don't have to use the clips. The injectors aren't going anywhere once the fuel rails are bolted down. They just make it easier to assemble.

MSD also sells the stock sickle type retainers. check out their catalog: PN 2110 for a pack of 8.
But yeah, like Larry said, they really aren't necessary. In fact, most aftermarket fuel rails dont' even have provisions for them, such as the ones for the HSR.
