We have a special right now on brand new Bosch Design III 30's. Flow matched for $299 for the set of 8.

What crank HP are you looking at, I can run the #'s and find what injector would suit you.

i'd like to see 400 or a bit more at the wheels with my set-up. mods include SLP lid, MAF, fernco bellows lol, LS6 manifold, pacesetter headers, !air! !egr! !cats!, ture duals with LM1 resonators out the back, coming before the cam goes in is a slp underdrive pulley and a 3400 circle D stall

Alright, 400WHP is roughly 480CHP through an auto, so I ran the #'s at 500 to give a touch of headroom.

I get a # of needing 33lb injectors at an 80% duty cycle to handle that. So 36's would probably be your best bet.

We can resize your stock injectors to that easily, would save you quite a bit of money as well as being much easier to tune.

Injectors can be flow matched after you bought them, there is a process to do so, just find someone that will do your 8

I strongly suggest that you go with the 42s to give you a little extra capacity. If you go the minimum, you will regret it later. And the price quoted you for the 42s is very reasonable. Note: I have no buy-in on this transaction, just trying to see a forum member make a good decision.
Although I am currently running the Lucas disc injectors, and find them a quality piece.
