8.1 Marine injectors (42 lb)up to 10 lbs of boost,with a walbro 255 intank pump

This is assuming you are running a truck intake and staying under 10psi
or 500 rwhp.....Worked for me, idc was at 100% above listed max numbers and stayed at 80% around 9psi 0r 460 rwhp iirc

-I would always run a little bigger though maybe some 60's..alot of variables
