Default FMS Injectors: Universal vs. Ford specific any differences?

Looking at the Green Top 42 lb./hr. injectors, I see that there are Universal (set of 4) as well as Ford specific (set of 8) part numbers listed at Summit.

Are there any real differences that I should be aware of?

Any reasons to avoid the Ford specific injectors (other than the obvious)?

I doubt it. I am running a set of 42 pph injectors that had the FMS blue oval on them.

Ford injectors, unlike most other injectors, are rated at 38 PSI fuel pressure whereas the rest are 43.5 PSI. I.E. the Ford injectors are slightly larger than ratings on a GM system (30# = 32.24ish# on a GM system).
