The power of the 5.0


I have been looking at the 360 Trick Flow top end Engine kit,I am wanting to buy it. This is what I have done so far to my 93 5.0,BBK Cold Air intake,Bassani O/R X pipe,Bassani Cat Back,70MM Throttle Body,BBK Underdrive Pullies,BBK Shorty Headers,3.73 Gears,Subrame Conncetors,AOD (Just rebuilt),AOD HP Shift Kit,and a 2400 Stall Converter. So should I buy the Trick Flow engine kit? Im also going to upgrade to the Aeromotive Fuel Kit,and get my Rear end Built.

I would probobly get 30# injectors just to be sure, that will be a potent motor. PRO-M makes 10-15 more horsepower than c@L almost every time, i have dyno proof.

How much hp can 24 lb injectors support? - Mustang Forums at StangNet


Injector HP ratings: divide flow rating by.5 and multiply the result by the number of injectors. This uses a 100% duty cycle. These ratings are for naturally aspirated engines.

Example:
19/.5 = 38, 38 x 8 = 304 HP
24/.5 = 48, 48 x 8 = 384 HP
30/.5 = 60, 60 x 8 = 480 HP
36/.5 = 72, 72 x 8 = 576 HP
42/.5 = 84, 84 x 8 = 672 HP

The preferred duty cycle is about 85% maximum, so for a safety factor multiply the final figure times .85.

304 HP x .85 = 258 HP
385 HP x .85 = 326 HP
480 HP x .85 = 408 HP
576 HP x .85 = 490 HP
672 HP x .85 = 571 HP

Remember that the above ratings are at 39 PSI. Increasing the pressure will effectively increase the flow rating. Example: a 19 lb injector will flow 24 lbs at 63 PSI, and a 24 lb injector will flow 30 lbs at 63 PSI.

24# will work but if you want room to improve go with the 30#
