Default Suggestions on injectors for stock 3.8

Have been going back and forth with a mid on a camaro I just got. Finally took it to the dealer today, they think it is a couple injectors since the misfire moved with the injectors. The dealer wanted $750 to replace the two injector, but thought it would be good to replace all 6-$2,000! That would be more than I paid for the car and seemed a little out there. Are the ACdelco really needed, or is there a good brand out there for a stock 3.8? I seen some Accel performance whole set of 6 from advanced auto for $260. I don’t need performance, just want something reliable.

Accel markets a good injector and get the next bigger size, i.e., if OE is a 19 lb, and Accel sells a 21 lb, get the 21 lb, PCM will learn.
Get all you need, a Haynes manual for instruction, and a jar of Vaseline.
Follow manual in removal of old injectors, swipe Vaseline on new injector O-rings, and follow manual for finishing up and starting engine.
Job well done and pat yourself on your back.
