Default extedning injector wires??

well this is a simple one for most of you guys.. so im converting my obo-0 harness to an obd-1 for my swap. i remove and replace each injector clip one by one making sure i dont mix up the wires. i also go and extend the injector wires all deifferent lenghts. maybe 1 foot at the longest so they will be able to come up under the manifold threw the runners to the injectors.. my question is.. with extending the wires mess up the pulse width signal from the ecu??

Along this same line...

Guage of wire.. what should I use? I built myself a harness for a b16a civic I have stashed away.. I'm rebuilding it. I had a bunch of wire laying around here where I work.. so I used it. What is the proper guage.. or close to?
