T5 ballast choice

I have my hood off and am ready to rewire it for a pair of T5's instead of the 4 PC's.

Quesion is which ballast should I run for the T5's?
It has 3 Workhorse 5's running a single 110 VHO Actinic, and 4 55 watt PC's for supplementation.

I also have a Accustart ballast I was planning on using for the pair of T5's, but the Workhorse is alread mounted, and would need less teardown to rewire.

Are there problems with the Workhorse ballasts, or a difference in light output because of the ballast?

Thanks in advance.
 
I ended up wiring up the Workhorse ballast, and it fires them just fine, so I just left it hoocked up.
Waiting for the fresh coat of paint to dry good before I reinstall the hood. Can't wait to get pics with the additional light.
