I am thinking LT4 injectors, LPE big bore, and SMG low side. I don't want to run meth.

It seems to me that if you are ok with tapping the fuel tank, adding a Aux low side will support more power then a ZL1 in-tank with a Voltage booster and the price is not much different. Install time is quite a bit less with the SMG setup too. Does this sound correct?

Curious to hear if anybody is running a similar setup on e85 and stock cam...how much power did you make?
I probably have something twisted so please don’t flame me if this is stupid.

Won’t you be limited to how much fuel you can put in without increasing the cam fuel lobe? If I have a cam letting in 30% more fuel and am not running out of fuel on E...then I am not sure how a stock cam could push it to the edge? I am running 8psi now and am planning to move to 10psi, but want to dyno this setup first.

In fairness my local gas stations appear to have e85 that is really e70. . .so that may also be a factor.
