Injector size for e85

I dont know what my current injector size is. My mods are H/C/I and headers and i put 388rwhp down. 403 with six speed previously. I assume I am around 475 crank hp. I am planning on going to e85, i took 475 x 1.33 and cam up with 631hp.

Is this the correct way to size injectors for e85? With the injector calculator as a sticky it came up with 42.69lbs/hr. Would 42's be fine? Go bigger, whats the next step?
I have a wet kit for N20 so that is of no concern.
Any input would help.

Thanks

42's would be perfect for your app. We have been going 30% larger for E85 and its been working out great.
