I did a quick search and the I believe the EB XR8's had 19lb/hr injectors. You could try that in your setting and use the map calculator (not sure, it might be called something different) in Megatune with the quoted factory power & torque figures to get you started.

Also if you look in the success stories for any of the late 80's to early 90's Mustangs. They had the 302 windsor so you might be able to use their ignition maps, IAM, trims and some other settings.
Do you have an EGO sensor to tune with?
