Wrong forum.... this topic is routinely covered on the "Fuel and Ignition" forum.

Injector size it determined by flywheel HP. A simple guideline - for minimum injector size on a normally aspirated application, multiply your estimated max flywheel HP by 0.07

Example:

500 flywheel HP x 0.07 = 35 #/HR

That assumes a BSFC of 0.476 and a max injector DC of 85%. A better, more efficient tune will reduce the BSFC, requiring less injector. A lower duty cycle is always a good, idea, and that would require a larger injector.
