Adding shaved door kit.....

Im going to be adding a shaved door handle kit to my 77 f250. What pound solenoids should i use? The kit im looking at comes with 45lb solenoids, think that would be enough for these old doors?

They should be fine if there adjusted right.

I saw a guy at work with 75s and they would kick you out of the way.

my car has 40 lb solenoids on it and popes them latches more than easily, not to mention loud...
I could pop a door on my car halfway across a wallmart parking lot...
loved to watch people jump when that door poped!!! but with mine the door wouldent open all the way when you hit that button, the lil door springs are crap... so you have to grab the door real quick before it halfway latches
