Just a couple more posts, and you won't have any trouble. It's an anti-spam tactic, and although it's a pain to many, it is quite effective. Alternatively, if it lets you edit your post with the "text" of the link, I'll be happy to fix it for you.I tried to post a link but i am too new...
You sir successfully made me re-think. LOL At this point I'm going to be looking at putting mine on corn. Single 465lph and 80# injectors. Perhaps this is why my fuel begins to pull at the upper rpms. Particularly in colder weather. I'm fairly certain that this car in its original state as I had bought it was probably ok but I am no Thomas. No offense to him at all. A super cool guy but this was set up as a tasteful weekend cruiser. Hell, it took me to figure out that the worn out tensioner couldn't hold the belt on. He drove it nice. I drive it nice....less.Is this N/A or supercharged car ? I'd suggest skipping the Focus pump altogether (it is a 10 year old technology afterall) as it tops out around 400rwhp (without BAP and/or fuel line upgrades), and going to Aeromotive 340 or AEM 320 pumps.

It is getting a Novi 1500, 8 lb max for now. Street only "weekend beater" with maybe a trip down the strip one night a year. Hoping to aftercooler it. Stock intake. I am thinking egr and imrc deletes. 4.10s and a posi sitting in the garage. Hoping to get a higher stall and full exhaust by spring. I need 39lb injectors, been debating new or used all weekend.Is this N/A or supercharged car ?

I'll add just a couple things. I'm no pro but I retain info I am given. Well....mostly. LOL 39# injectors are not big enough in my opinion. You want at least 42s at 8psi. Also, regarding the E85. You can run a multi-bank chip that you can switch from a pump gas tune to E85 tune with the flick of a dial. The car will just need to be tuned on both fuels. With "8lbs max", you should be able to easily handle the IATs with a methanol injection kit. Centrifugal blowers are very efficient.It is getting a Novi 1500, 8 lb max for now.

It is a 98 so it has the dumb pulse width modulated pump. I found a place that sells the Focus pump as a stand alone unit, its a Carter. I called Aeromotive and they are aware of the system we have in our cars and said they do not have anything nor the bastard 98 cobras. They do have options but nothing that is "drop in" so to speak. I didn't want to do the whole relay and wiring thing if I didn't have to. But like you said do it and get it over with.
I have a couple of other to do's yet. Cooling head mod and figure out the coolant crossover tube. I have a thread I started on LVC about all that. I am trying to keep all my posts on one site but finding that doesn't seem to work hahahaha.
I would love to e85 it but don't want to get stuck in the event of a road trip and I don't have it close by...
Thanks again for you guys taking interest.
I'm not saying that you are wrong and that 39# injectors wouldn't work. I just think the idea here is that if you use 42# injectors instead, you will be further away from the max duty cycle of the injector thus being more efficient. That's how I understand it anyways. Same going for fuel pumps. Having a little bit of head room is always good.I guess it is going to make more power than I thought. I was thinking 425 flywheel. That came out to 34# injectors, rounding up to 39s. The 03 blown cobras had 39s so I thught that it kinda confirmed my calculations. Good to be wrong sometimes
Upon further review ..... Aeromotive won. I have a 11142 coming, genuin not a $50 knock-off. Where would one find the top hat that you suggest?Either 39 (which have been tested to flow a hair over 40 countless times) or 42 injectors will be sufficient for your current goals. The green giants are awesome, and are plug and play without the adapters.
You want the offset inlet due to space constraints inside the bucket. The pump height plays a big role as well.
Aeromotive 11142 fits well, and offers the same offset as stock. You want the tall basket manifold for it to work correctly. Like the one pictured on the left :
