I ran a 200 jet in my NOS dry kit with a bottle pressure hovering around 1275-1300..... So probably a good bit over 200.
That was the best setup I ever had on my old 5.0. I went TT shortly after and started splitting blocks
After 4 motors I gave up and sold the car to a guy in Kansas.
I really loved my '92 GT.... such a fun car. Before the factory block split the first time the car was a pure menace....15psi through Twisted wedge heads with appropriate cam/lifter etc was just evil. Only car I've had to date that would spin the rear tires (275/40/17's) at 100mph just by pressing the go pedal....
This was about....5 years ago now.

The SDS system was a "plug and play" setup done by western motorsports out of canada. You just unplugged the stock Ford ECU (PCM these days?) and plugged in the SDS. Was a very easy install that used all the stock sensors.
I don't have any vehicles using SDS now, but the system definitely does work and I agree it's good enough for 90% of the people considering stand alone.

you gotta remember man, that non-girdled 302 blocks will let go of the main webbing around 550-600hp. so be careful!

Taylor Durden is 100% correct on why the blocks kept splitting.
Car would run really well and then the next thing you know... The oil pressure would be hovering around 5psi hot at idle. No rod/main noise at all... just low oil pressure.
Tear down the motor and it would look like it was ready to fall into two pieces.
So, unless you move to a block like an A4 (no longer available I hear, but others "like" it are) that can handle it...I gaurantee you WILL split blocks over and over.
Think of it this way... if you split the block you know for sure you are making good power
It will just be time to drop the wad on a different block.
Good luck!
