43x8 = 344lb per hr x 2 IF at .50 bsfc =688 hp mwxed right at 100% duty cycle, if turned fuel press up and forced injectors to flow 50lbs your still only talking 800 hp and thats w pw maxed to 100% which is a nono, im interested too as math doesnt work out!

That's what I was thinking. I'm running 42 lb injectors on a small block.
