What have people gained going 2 E85? On a cammed and boosted CAMARO?

Depending on your build, of course. I was able to bump boost 4psi, timing +6* and gain about 150-200rwhp over 93 octane with my SBE but "cammed and boosted" on E85 (66%).

Thanks 4 the input! Maggie at 10 psi already not sure on the timing but maybe a fun thing 2 look at.

I am converting to E85 along with other mods, but expect the ethanol impact to be about 80 whp.

Timing does wonders to these Ls engines. Well...any engine. But it’s amazing what a few degrees of timing can do

I picked up about 80 whp on a 73% blend when I switched to e85.

Tbean, that's one of the lowest numbers I've heard out there. Do you have a before and after dyno?

It's a cammed car.... n/a. From what I've read, expect 15-20 hp on a n/a car. I'll be happy if I get 22...

N/a cars can pick up 10-20 hp/tq
boosted cars 50-100+

Ok, 22hp on a NA car. That makes sense. This is an FI thread, so the comment threw me off.
My Procharged car is currently getting cammed and converted at the same time, so the low number was shocking. Thanks for clarifying!

On a recent build LS3 stock long block, SLP supercharger 2.8 pulley JRE cam LT headers JRE flex fuel conversion and JRE flex fuel tuning, made 741 RWHP 678 RWTQ on E-81.
Gains over 93 pump gas, 90 RWHP and 80 RWTQ just by switching fuel only, no tuning changes.
