Default new injectors?

I am thinkin about some new injectors like 40's or 60's what's a good injector for the $$$$. I have a 98.5 24v thats stock with a 4 inch turbo back silverline system.
Thanks,
Matt

I would recommend a good set of guages before the injectors.

At least a low pressure light would be a good investment. Too many people have had to shell out a bunch of cash for injection pumps that have been starved. A VP44 need a minimum of 10 PSI at all time to keep it lubricated and cooled.
I have a Pyro, Boost, and Trans Temp gauge as my truck has an auto transmission. Guys with manual transmissions don't need trans temp as much as the auto trucks, so they usually have a fuel pressure gauge instead of the trans temp.
When you are ready for a set of injectors, get a hold of Luke. He will set you up with some Fireball injectors. I have a set of 65HP's, and LOVE them!!
