160's will pulse short enough to idle a stock engine on E85, they won't be too big. I've got some 160's on the way for my E85 switchover

Some have gotten by with hi-imp 80lb'ers on high base pressure at 700-800rwhp. If you have the cash, get the hi-imp 160's and dont look back. They perform great and will support big power on E85. I used a set of FIC2000's on a 427 and they idle great too, just cost a lot.

Personally I use low-imp Deplhi 95's and a Versafueler driver box. New injectors and used box for $440. Couldnt pass it up. Was running 650rw with a little room yet.
