what injectors!!!

hey guys.... im going to finish up buying the fuel stuff i need for my build... just cant figure out what injector to go with... probably going to go with the SVO's... but there is a couple of styles i think to choose from.... can anybody guide me in the right direction... car is N/A 383 and going to be running 42# injectors on that ( i know its a little high but id rather tune them down then be at the limits of a 36#) i think there is like svo green top and blue top... anybody know the difference or what is better for my build... thanks!

42's way to go so you don't have to have a high duty cycle.
i'm a little particular in when it comes to putting ford parts in my cars.... (a little stuck up, owned 2 fords both pos's)
i have had real good luck with brands of injectors : venom , fast , racetronics
svo injectora i think are single hole, multi hole (3 hole spray nozzle) better atomization,performance,mpg etc...

I have Bosch units in my car...

If you looking for cheap(wouldnt do that with parts like this...) look for Lightning injectors.

you don't want too large of an injector though. the spray pattern will be incorrect for the rpm.

You pay a bit more for the racetronic's stuff but your getting injectors matched to 1% and they have great customer service. I've run into some minor issues with their fuel pump kits and they always addressed the issue and corrected it right away.

Here is the part number for the 42s.

It's all right on the site...click the "Buy Now" link....

The site shows $35.00 each, so $280 for 8 (but factory tolerances in fuel flow apply).

A 1% matched 8 pack is $360

I wouldnt suggest "009" injectors... they are very difficult to tune for...
