I think 300 rear wheel horses is a little out of reach. They say drive train soaks up roughly 30%. You'd have to make about 390 flywheel h.p. The biggest problem on your engine(and mine for that matter) is the cylinder heads and intake. Stock Ford heads suck! You'll probably make about 240-260 rear wheel horses with your blower. However add an intake with big heads and you'll probably get 350-400 horses at the rear wheel. Since you're running boost, you can get big heads and intake to take advantage of that airflow. Your blower can probably flow about 850-1000 cubic feet per minute. That's enough to make serious power if you open up the heads and intake to let all 1000cfm go through with ease.
