Anybody running 2003 Mustang Cobra injectors?

Saw some sets for sale on a Mustang board...I would think they'd work in these cars. It says they are 42# injectors, I'm trying to research if in fact the '03 Cobras came with 42#'ers. Save a bit of money this route...

I looked further into it and they say they are 39#'s, not 42#'s. But, they're $175, too bad they weren't 42#'ers, but, 39#'ers would probably work fine...saves about $150.

Damnit.

Interesting info. Do you know what PSI they are rated at?

He just replied and told me this:

they are actually 42lb injectors, but they are flow rated at a delta P of 39 instead of 44 (industry standard). So by fords ratings they are 42's, but compared to a bosch or lucas they are 39's.
In a Ford, they'll flow 39 lb/hr, but, when put in our cars that run 43.5 PSI they'll flow 41.08 lb/hr if I understand correctly and my math is correct.

Somebody told me, the way I understand it, is that the Fox-body Windor engine Mustangs have the same injectors that we use, but the modular engine Mustangs have different connectors on their injectors?

Can anyone confirm this?

Do you know where to get that, and how much it goes for?
