Does this injector flow sound right?

I'm going to put some FAST 36lb hr injectors in, the website says they are rated at 45psi and I understand the LS1 injectors flow at 58psi.
5.149686
5.181781
5.213678
5.245381
5.276893
5.308218
5.339360
5.370321
5.401104
5.431713
5.462151
5.492420
5.522523
5.552463
5.582242
5.611863
5.641329
The reason I ask is because the stock values are all different numbers and these ones are constantly at 5. I used the stickied injector calculator

According to Bosch, these injectors flow 35.746 lb/hr @ 3 Bar.
Bosch Flow Data:

Here's the calculation:
Flow rate with Hepatane: 261.1 g/m
Conversion from Hepatane to petrol: 3.5%
Flow rate with petrol (g/m x 1.035): 261.1 x 1.035 = 270.238500 g/m
Convert to g/s (g/m / 60): 270.238500 / 60 = 4.503975 g/s
Convert g/s to lb/hr (g/s * 7.9366479): 4.503975 * 7.9366479 = 35.746463 lb/hr @ 3 Bar
Are you using a referenced or unreferenced fuel pressure regulator? Which tuning software are you using?
Here is the IFR table for EFILive with an unreferenced fuel system:
Assumption: 58 psi (4 Bar) pressure at the fuel rail

Use this to calculate your IFR table on a perfectly tuned engine, swap injectors, log, and then come back and tell me this is correct.
