Question Who is using larger fuel injectors?

I am curious as to who on this forum is using larger fuel injectors in their Lightning, or blue printed stock ones.

I know JLP runs larger ones and he has said that they are not needed. I have had my Autotap hooked up and the stock ones hardly are open and my A?F is way rich at WOT (spits gas out, pegs the stock o2)

Where did you get those injectores and for how much. From what I under stand you take the rated fuel load at 55lbhr multiply it by 2 then times 8 to see what kind of power they will support.
55x2=110x8=880hp
stock42x2=84x8=672hp
I gues if you really want to support alot of power upgrade. But it's never a bad idea to have alittle extra in the fuel system.

I've heard some people complain they have reached the limit, I haven't.
It was cheaper for me to sell my old 42's and buy these which are supposed to be within 3%, than to test my old ones.
