How much power would a Windsor 302EFI/5.0L H.O. That is bored .O30 over (306ci) with cone filter and stock MAF, BBK 70mm TB, stock headers, no cat, and 3” single exhaust make?

240hp?

The highest performance High Output 5.0 was in the 1995 Ford Cobra, where it made 245 horsepower. So 240 HP sounds reasonable, maybe a bit more depending on cam, heads etc.
