Lots of vehicles use the same injector connector. Lt1's, Mustangs, 3800 V6's etc. You might be able to go to a salvage yard and hack some off an old harness. I am needing to upgrade my injectors and can't decide if I want to spend the $$ for the ones that go right in or hack some connectors and go with the ford injectors.

I paid Valvegod (Shaun Carter) $50 for what he called a pair of sub-harnesses. I felt like it was too expensive, but I already had the SVO injectors, so I needed it. I sold mine to Parish8 when I pulled the whipple off. I just cut the Bosch wire conectors off, cut my truck injectors off and spliced them in. It was no big deal. There is a common colored wire that is the ground I assume, just keep them matched up. Then you will need to add 3/4 longer bolts to the fuel rail and a 3/4" spacer to make up for the longer injector. It will take a little bending to get the crossover tube to fit properly. I had a few issues with leaking gas fron the fuel return line due to the improper height of the rails, but I fixed it. Also, you will have to slightly elongate the fuel rail hole as it will shift a little with the longer injectors.

Truck injectors on the right, LS1 injectors on the right:
