Default Injector wire size?

I am doing the 3.9 to 5.9 swap with a 2001 v6 and using a rusted out 2000 Dakota RT. Im adding the 2 injector wires plus the negatives, instead of swapping harnesses.

I have my 2001 5.9 RT pcm and i have the pins for the pcm plug for the 2 injector missing. I have those pin numbers. I just dont know exactly where to get the correct wire... Ive read its a 14 gauge wire but im not sure.

If anyone knows what size it is and even if anyone knows where i could get this correct wire.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm showing 18 gauge on the driver (negative) side and 16 gauge on positive side.
Primary wire from your auto parts store.

I just grabbed a donor harness and pulled the 2 wires out of it, about a foot worth of both then spliced my own wire onto them (think I used gray on one and purple on the other, both 18 gauge). You'll need the proprietary ends anyways.
