What injector will work the best?

I have a 91 tpi 305 right now, looking to put in a 355 in a year or so. I need injectors now and would like to get a set that will work good for both motors. Is there any that would work good for both? Is 24 lb/hr too much for a little 305?

24 lbs are too much for a 305 unless it's highly modded.

What he said. However, i'd get them, and just deal with the lack of good performance until the 355 goes in. No use buying, say new 19 or 22lbers for the 305, then going out and buying 24lbers for the 355.

Are your injectors bad? If you put 24# injectors in now you will have more than just poor performance. Read several posts on this same subject. You're going to be pumping 25-30% more fuel in than the computer is aware of. You can get injectors on eBay for a fairly good price.

Well I took the plenum off to polish it and I needed new intake gaskets. While I have it a part I ohm checked the injectors all ohm out whithin specs except for one. I have noticed a slight miss so I figured that this could be the culprit. In the future I want to put a 355 in instead of the 305. so instead of buying a new set of 19lb injectors I was just wondering what could be a better option. Should I just replace the one? will there be any flow differences to worry about? The injectors I am running have 85,000 miles on them.
