whatever size matches the inlet of the manifold you're using. Need more, open it up with a dremel. I wouldn't go smaller than a 90. You need a LOT more injector than a 42lb for that combo.

Those are some big ass heads for a street car (IMO) and add a T trim, definitly go as big as possible. What intake are you using? And grn92lx is right, gonna need more fuel

Trick Flow® R-Series Intake Manifolds for Ford 5.0L - trickflow.com

the R series will have the inlet you are looking for (90mm), as well as being better suited for flowing as much as your going to need it to.

the systemax has a 75mm inlet i believe.

correct, but lots of material to open it to 90mm. I think sytemax intake would be better suited for a street motor though.
