Default HP estimate please!

Okay so i have a 1991.5 and im sick of everyone thinking that you have to buy a new truck to have it be an all around truck (work, race, tow, daily driver). I have been doing alot of research since i purchased the truck around 6 months ago. Without thinking about price, i have put together a bit of a laundry list of mods. Port and Polish head, Camshaft, s400 turbo, 2 piece or 3 piece exhaust manifold (not sure wat id need for the s400), max the pump, injectors (size?), head studs and fire ring head, 7.3 intercooler, and custom intake and 4 inch exhaust. So i was wondering if these mods are good ideas and what size injectors should i use? I am goin to be swaping the a518 with a nv4500.

I'd do a 14mm pump if cost is no object....it'll give you way more power than head work and a cam.
