*EDIT* HP/Torque estimates?

*EDIT* HP/Torque estimates?
I got everything working as far as I can see! For those not keeping up, on Sunday I started doing alot of work to my pony and just a couple of hours earlier worked out all (hopefully!) of the known bugs, I'm knocking on wood right now so I don't jinx it.
I had this on my car before the install:
MAC CAI,
65mm? Cobra MAF calibrated for #19lbs injectors,
Cobra upper/lower intake manifold,
timing @ 11-12*
Flowmaster cat-back
and was having a slight overheating problem.
Over the last week I installed the following to complement the already existing mods, and ran into ALOT of problems, quarks, and bugs on the way there:
BBK 1 5/8th's unequal shorties
MAC U/D Pullies
3g 94+ Mustang 130amp alternator
Proform electric fan
3-row radiator
Goodyear Hi-miler hose kit- almost Ford Blue
MSD cap/rotor (cobra intake red)
MSD 8mm ignition wires w/adjustable boot- Ford Blue
New Splitfire plugs
The headers were a huge PITA to get in until I removed the H-pipe, and the alternator scared the hell out of me for a while but now I think it's cool. The electric fan just rocks. Period. On the way home from work it stayed cool no matter how hard I was pushing it.
I feel a HUGE SOTP gain. The car also revs up and gets to speed ALOT quicker- even while not pushing it too hard.
I have some pictures and there is another person with some experience on these matters inhouse.
I want to thank everyone that helped me with everything in this project. Thank you all!
ANY HORSEPOWER/TORQUE ESTIMATES?
I'm thinking around probably 225-230 to the wheels, anyone else venture a guess?

RE: I finally did it!
It came this way I didn't pay for it.
Plus, I heard that you can overfuel the system and bog it down. 19#er's are supposed to be good to around 300hp, and I know I have NOWHERE near there,

ya around 290 hp is when yo uwant to get 24#'s thats like putting a 70mm tb or 75mm tb on a stock motor your actually slowing it down. on the temp gauge do you get midways with your electric fan? or 1/4 the way, how high does your temp gauge because i was gonna get an electric fan maybe, but ive heard alot of bad things.

at 100% duty cycle (bad) 19# injectors could handle 304 hp, i dont reccomend more than 260-275 on 19# injectors. you can go with bigger injectors and not hurt anything (including gas milage) as the engine will only use what it needs. as long as your maf sensor is matched to the injector size you are good to go.

Well, so far, (1 ride home from work) it never even got above half way on a 85* hollywood night. Fan works well so far, but I had to get the stat replaced on it because the one it came with blew out.
What about horsepower/torque guesses everyone?
