EFI SETUP ON 347?? WHAT SHOULD I USE?
So, I'm in the process of changing over from a carb setup to EFI with the prospect of going forced induction in the future. Below is the few parts I have accumulated and below that is my current setup. I'm unsure of what size TB/MAF/injectors I should go with and I don't want to run out and get 90/90/42lb and that be complete overkill....
So Please suggest what I should run with this setup. I've been looking at the Holley systemax, but am now leaning twards the CHP Spyder II intake setup as I can change the configuration around for a turbo setup later if need...
Also ideas on EFI fuel pumps, etc. I just want a detailed plan layed out beforehand as in the past I have just started buying without an end goal.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

RE: EFI SETUP ON 347?? WHAT SHOULD I USE?
Good point... there's no point in getting setup now with anything less than what I will need in the future.
First off, this will be going in a 1966 Mustang... so some of the restrictions may or may not apply in this case.
Eventually, I'd like to run a dual turbo setup and try to see ~750whp+... of course that's a huge undertaking and will likely be a few years away.
For the time being, I'd like to hit around 400HP on motor and be able to use my 250 plate system until the block cracks and I have to make the move to an aftermarket one.
A single fuel pump for the time being should be sufficient and I can upgrade to a dual system in the future fairly easily. Being I don't have to run an in-tank pump, my options should be fairly open.
I'm new to 5.0 EFI, so I see anywhere from 65mm to 105mm TB's, a huge amount of MAF's and even more Injector choices. Obviously I will have to upgrade the injectors once I go FI and I'd like to not spend a huge amount on high priced low impedence injectors if I'm not going to make the move until later.

Well, maybe I'll stay off the spray for awhile then... I was thinking I would be pressing my luck.... I just want to get it running... it's been so long since I've driven it. the current 347 rebuild has never been ran. I cracked four keith black hyperutectic pistons before deciding to go EFI, so the current block was freshed up with a new hone already... I hate to tear it apart.
With the TT though, I think I want to stay stock stroke anyways to keep it rev happy.... so if it goes, a complete rebuild will only hurt my wallet, not my feelings.
Destroying a stock block aside... what do you guys think about the setup???

Would a 90mm accufab/90mm lightning MAF/42lb injector setup on an EFI Spyder II be too much?

Okay, cool. That's really what I need to know. I know in the carbed world, too many people overcarb their setups... I mean I was running a 600cfm carb on my old setup...
But on the flip side, I do want a setup that will support my future Turbo build. Of course the TB/MAF size isn't really as important as the injectors with a forced setup right?
Thanks for the info!
