Did you have the chamber re worked? You have to be running high compression to squeeze those numbers out a P1-SC is my point. So I am just interested.

50lbs injectors will be more then enough. 500bhp on a supercharged only calls for a 48lbs injector which isnt available so 50 would be best.

48lbs would be for a 500hp engine with the BSFC of .65 (which is higher then what yours will be) and at 40psi. yours would be .55 BFSC for a supercharged 4.6l which would only require 40lbs injectors. But better to be safe then sorry. Oh these are all at 90% duty cycle

LOL yeah I'm all screwed up today. Long day and doing the math is cooking my brain.

500rwhp of 575bhp requires 45lbs injectors. 52 lbs injectors (which is what I think they sell for our engines) can support 585rwhp at 40psi with 90% duty cycle. Now I am pretty sure that a 97 cobra is return style fuel system. If you get an adjustable regulator and set the pressure to 60psi the 52lbs injectors will act like 64 lbs injectors which will support 660 rwhp and 42 lbs injectors will act like 52lbs injectors which will support the above. If using a returnless system you are stuck with upgrading injectors instead of pressure because the computer will adjust the pulse with for the higher pressure (damn ford). Glad I'm going return style.

Lope at idle does not mean large LSA. That is only in a NA cam. A blower cam gets it lope for the duration. A stage 3 blower cam should only have around 530 lift. Blower cams dont need lift just duration.

OP what blower are you running.
These Crower Stage 3 blower cams aren't 530.
