Injector Pop off Pressure

Quick question for some of the gurus. I have a 1995 auto truck with a 160hp pump. No other mods, but I am getting ready to install a set of 215 hp injectors from a 1997. I am curious about pop off pressures.

I will be sending these injectors in to be cleaned and checked before installing and would like to know if the pop off pressure needs to be lowered or raised. I plan to install the 3k GSK at the same time, also possibly a #5 plate.

Injectors came out of a perfectly good running truck, with no known problems.

Am I worrying about something that will have little or no effect on how the truck runs???? My thinking is that I may need to lower the pressure they release at because of the smaller pump. Also what are the proper size copper washers to run with these????

Throw me a bone here guys..............What do you think.
