Default Volumetric Efficiency

In the early stages of planning a FI set-up and I need some info for the math. Anyone know where to find some figures for VE on the 4.6L 2V (1998)?

i wish i knew but i dont so what im going to tell you is just a basic principal for most cars that come out of the factory, a lot of these stock cars are running 80% and lower efficiency, easily changed by intake manifold, heads and, cam swaps, even header and exhaust designs have a lot to do with it.

I was figuring 85% at best, but wanted to be as precise as possible. Since no information seems available, i'll just guestimate.
