Default Color coding of injectors

What is the color coding for the injectors?
I been looking at other mustang engines in my club and they have the yellow orange instead of the pinkish red that I have. Does this mean I have the wrong ones or what I have an 2003 gt. Anyone with some knowledge can enlighten me

The yellowish orange are 19lbers (used til 02). Pink ones are still 19lbers that came on 2003+ GTs. Red are 30lbers. Are yours closer to red or pink?

why would they put 21#ers in a 4.6 stock? the stock injectors should be 19#ers. and on the newer stangs they are pinkish for some odd reason.

It appears that in the middle of 02, they changed over to pink injectors, but they're still 19lbers.
