 4.2 injectors are the same size as 3.6 injectors. In normal useage they're 
not even large enough for 300hp..but...

 ......V8's run ridiculously high fuel pressures for some strange reason. Put 
enough pressure behind any injector and it will pass the fuel you need.

 As for supporting 330hp..... John J's 93 is approaching 370hp with stock 
injectors. =0)
