Default what injectors to go with my new combo?

i bought a set of totally reworked E7 heads with a 5 angle valve job and lots of porting, typhoon intake and 70 mm tb, bbk shorties and a catless x pipe, plus i have my procharger with 9 psi boost. i was thinking about 42# injectors but i wanna see what others think. thanks for all your input in advance.

really depends solely on the HP numbers your making. 36 are fine

i think with 36# youll still need an FMU. with 42 youll be OK, with out the FMU.

I am building something similar, I chose 42#. If you have to buy injectors anyway, the 42# (I paid $200 for new Ford Racing) can be bought for the same price as 30# or 36#, so there is no money savings. From all I have heard the 42# behave very well even if you are lower than max HP for them.
