Couldn't find the answer to this question via search. I know injector size - 19lbs - but does that mean the total overall fuel pressure is 19lbs? I think my nitrous kit came out of the box - set for 30lbs. If it is 19lbs, I've got some adjustments to do lol. Any help, as always, will be greatly appreciated.

fuel pressure is determined by the fuel pump, not the injectors. the 19lbs/hr is just the flow rate of the injectors. i'm not sure, but i think the stock fuel pressure is 30-60psi at the rail depending on load and throttle position.
 
K, thanks - reason I asked is because I picked up a load of jets for my NOS kit, so I can get it dialed in exactly how it should be for my fuel pressure. Unfortunately, the kit doesn't explain whether I should base this on idle fuel pressure, or WOT fuel pressure. Do you have experience with this?
 
Ford Runs with a 39 psi delta pressure(pressure drop across inj). so at wot,0 manifold press., should be around 39 to 40 psi. at 20" vacuum it should be around 30(every 2" of vac = 1psi, so 40-10=30) and at 10 psi boost should be around 50(40 +10 = 50)with properly sized injectors
