Default 24 lb Injectors for '86

Hello I am looking to bump up to 24 lb injectors on my '86 Mustang.

What injectors will fit my stock fuel rails? I see a bunch on E-bay but am wondering which ones (part no's) will drop right in without using any adapters at the connectors.

if you havent done any other modifications to the engine... you are wasting your time and money with 24# injectors

Yes, I am supercharged and am not getting enough fuel w/ 19 lb injectors & FMU at the higher RPM's.

I am now asking the question again: I am looking to bump up to 24 lb injectors on my '86 Mustang.

if you are supercharged, you would be stupid (for lack of a better phrasing) to use anything less than 36# injectors, and a maf swap

The question was not what size injectors I need nor what system I should convert to.

What injectors will fit the stock fuel rail including the stock connectors?

For the time being I want to bump up to 24 lb injectors w/ FMU and 255 fuel pump to keep costs down on my stock Speed Density system. Long term plans will be to go with 42 lb injectors and a MegaSquirt system.

So with 24 lb injectors what must be done to the ecu, will a predator or other such handheld tuner be able to make them work?
