I don't believe my combination is that far from an LT4 - quite happy with the performance. E fuel is not readily available here. I did go with the LT4 due to inspection challenges, light weight, and OEM reliability.

Even on the street, the PD blower really excels. Drive the car all day below 2000 rpm or even lower with spritely performance. This was not the case without the blower. Admittedly, I tend to dawdle on the street in high gears.

Amazing 650 hp - modern technology...
I agree with Wanta1SS that you are above stock ZL1 power. Normally LT1's only need about 7psi to make what the ZL1 does @ stock boost due to the compression difference. That is why I was saying if you were concerned with IAT, you could lower the boost, raise the octane, increase the timing and make the same if not more power with less heat.
