No they will not work. The plug in is not the same.
42s are almost pointless if you think about it, depends on your goals though but... using decipha injector equation
30 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 230rwhp
36 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 276rwhp
42 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 322rwhp
60 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 460rwhp
80 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 614rwhp
120 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 921rwhp
160 * 1.6 * 6 * .8 = 1228rwhp
Can you explain this math please?
Yep sure is clear as mudd. The 331in my 95 cobra put down 320rwhp on a land and sea dyno. This is a load bearing dyno like a Mustang dyno. On a dynojet that would be about 350rwhp. Before the engine was together I did the math and the stock 24lb injectors would have been rright on the 80% limit. I had that math checked by my cam grinder who also said I could use 24's. I have not paid attention to duty cycle on any dyno results or data logging I have done because the injector was sized appropriately so I can not verify exactly what it is. I just have a hard time fathoming Ford would put a relatively large injector on this engine and leave so little wiggle room. It is not characteristic of them. A 5.0 Mustang can safely run a 19lb injector up to about 300fwhp a full 75hp over stock. Yet you are telling me a SC will run out of injector at 230rwhp, only 40 to 50hp over stock? I don't like your math. Hell even with your math a v8 should be putting out 154 more HP than a supercharged v6 just because it has 2 more cylinders! At the rpm the SC supercharged 3.8 makes peak power I find it hard to believe a mild bolt on car will be maxing out the factory injectors.

Kurt can you explain to me what bolt ons are needed to reach 308RWHP? It may better help me understand this.
