Can anyone help me out with this; trying to be 100% sure that my injectors are 24 lb. They're Bosch but pink in color.

So these?

Bosch Mustang Type III Fuel Injectors - EV1 - Jetronic - 24lb (86-04)

Upgrade your fuel system with this 1986-2004 Mustang Bosch Type 3 24lb fuel injector kit!

Believe it or not injectors are often counterfeit from places like eBay and Amazon. Not saying yours are just beware. Spark plugs are often counterfeit too.

If these aren't usable; will my stock ones be enough for my minor upgrades for now?

Okay; I'll just put my stock ones back in for now so I'll have a way of getting around.

Just out of curiosity; does the Timing spout advance timing 6°?

It allows the computer to control timing. So yes the computer could be adding 6* of timing with the spout in.
I don't see why you can't use those injectors.

Sorry to be late chiming in on this. I wouldn't have commented a little late had I not done some research on these particular injectors earlier this year.

Yes, they are 24lb injectors and are from a Volvo as Mike (Mustang5L5) stated. Specifically they are from a 99-01 Volvo S80 w/ 2.9L 6 cyl.
The upside to these injectors (IMHO) is they are an EV6 body, Jetronic connector (no connector adapter needed), body dimensions allow their direct swap into a 5.0 and are compatible with the original 19lb electrical resistance specs. The EV6 body runs cooler ( plastic vs metal) and has a better atomization pattern (four nozzles vs one nozzle).

Personally, I say run'em if it's a mild mod motor. Theoretically they'll operate at approximately 85% duty cycle rate for a low 300hp range output motor. I got lucky with a set of Beck/Arnley rebuilds from Rock Auto this past year. They were a close out and I got them for a whopping $60...for the set!!

Just don't mind their color!
