    he does not have an adjustable FPR so any changes need to be done within the tune itself.

Normally with 19's, fuel pressure should be 43 to 45 pounds. I'm at 37 pounds on the fuel pressure now.

    Another thing I've read. No way of knowing if true or not. Ford's method of rating injectors output differs from GM's way. 19 pound Fords would measure out at near 21 pounds using GM's way of measuring.

    Just some extra thoughts Larry.
    the last part of your post is highly debated. It depends on the injector manufacturer, and I cant speak for the red tops. I know that my Ford (Bosch) green tops flowed 42 lbs @ 3 bar even tho these are a ford injector and "should" flow more

    bigger injectors will be fine they just need to be tuned properly, if you add a set of heads down the road you'll be upgrading injectors again anyways.
