i was told to step up to 42 lb injectors in case you want to mod even more ie heads in the future so that way you aren't buying them twice.

36's are more than enough, but get whatever is cheaper.

Dude, you gotta be shitting me. This is your 3rd thread on the same exact subject. I'll say it one more time:

36 for your application, 42's if you add on the nitrous.

The cheapest place I found 42 injectors are via Harris Speed Works.
