Default injector spray pattern

Hey fellas, I'm just finishing up my heads/cam/fast 90 build and I'm was thinking about using a set of racetronix injectors I bought a while back, but I'm not so sure now. First of all, I was on their site and they said these injectors spray in a "3 prong cone". Not sure exactly what that is, but it's not the same as the stock GM injectors is it? I'm worried about unburned fuel passing through the motor because of improper spray. The other thing I'm worried about is these things flow about 40lbs @ 43.5psi. At LS1 fuel pressure, its going to be a few lbs more, which seems like an awful lot for a h/c 346. Too much, do you think?? Thanks a lot.

With a good PCM tune they will perform flawlessly.
The cone spray is fine for a LS1.
