Default what Lbs of injectors should i get

Looking to get at least 300-350 outta my 5.0. i am wondering on what injextors i should get. I hear mostly people talking about 24lbs. Is this due to gas mielage or would that even effect it. What are the stock injectors?? im wanting to guess 19 lbs. So would i be better off getting 24 or 30 or bigger im not clear on what to do on these, cause this would affect other things ill neeed on my journey. Thanks alot, Brad

19lbs will support 300 hp. no need to go higher. if you want only go ot 24 anything higher is a waste of money

exactually run those 19 above an injector duty cyle of 80 in my opinion is not so good , i would always step up an injector size higher if your right on the border , especially on boost or n2o , the injectors starts doing wierd **** to the spray pattern when it goes to 90% or higher , and ford injectors are pintles if im not wrong either.
