305 at the flywheel maybe so that equates to about 270ish rwhp. The mods you have arent really big HP adding mods. The heads dont add that much since the factory cam. B/c the cam will only let so much air in or out. You could have 205cc heads with a factory cam and only gain 10hp. The .030 overbore is good for about 5-7hp and 10lbs of tq. On a stock bottem end.

Maaaayyybbbeee 425 on an engine dyno, around 370rwhp, but even that is pushing it IMO. The LSA on the zz409 is not optimal for NA power(why in the world make a 226/226 "performance" cam with 115LSA???) and usually a split with more exhaust duration will make more(and higher) peak hp and compensate for the much weaker exhaust port of most heads. Maybe if you were pumping 12psi into it and ported the AFRs then it would make nice numbers.
So back to the question - yes, SVO 30#s will be enough for your combo, and no you wont make 425rwhp with it and you are not making 365rwhp now.Those mods would make an easy 400 in an LSX though if you wanna go the easy route - they are much more forgiving of part selection .

My car had ported heads and 1.6 rockers on it when I bought it. After I did full boltons except an electric WP it put out 303rwhp through an auto, so a 6-speed might see 315rwhp. As far as the injectors I'm still running racetronix 32lb injectors on my setup although I have no idea what the duty cycle is at.

Are these good ones, or should I go with the actual Ford SVO ones?

I have a set myself that I can't decide if I should use or just get some SVO 30's.

Your right...truth hurts...and my inexperience with cars makes me get that "wishful thinking" going and sometimes you need a good slap in the face to snap out of it.
Regardless, I LOVE my car and I am almost to the point where I am done modifying it. I'm not trying to get a 10 secong LT1...12's would be fine with me, she will primarily be a show car.
Nothing will take away my passion for this car, so I'll press on and life will continue, and what happens happens. If I get done with all this and only have 350 rwhp, so be it...I'll STILL turn heads lol

From your sig. The car is gorgeous. And I have to say, it is really nice to have a sharp looking car with decent power is alot better of a feelings than a basic plain jane car with power. Just feels better when you drive it.

350hp to the rear wheels is nothing to be ashamed about anyway - a lot of brand new cars still don't even make that, and these cars are over 10 years old . Mustangs don't even make near that at the flywheel .

My 95 z is putting out 358 RWHP with bolt ons plus an LT4 Hot cam kit and home modded heads. The Tuner Said get larger injectors, Cleaned up MAF screen, 6400 MSD chip. and LT4 knock sensor...with these I hope to approach 400 at the rear wheels

Get some SVO 30's for extra insurance, but they won't give you extra hp.
MSD 6400 chip is unnecessary.
Cleaning the MAF is as needed routine maintainence procedure.
LT4 knock sensor is a good idea to prevent excessive knock retard, your LT1 knock sensor should have be desensitized with your tune.
You are making good power as is. IMO you are close to the max output of your mods.
