AFAIK any boost a pump deal would work only on the low pressure side pump that is in the tank. I don't think that is a bottle neck to 550 HP on E85. In general it is the high pressure pump that is cam driven and the injector nozzle size.


I would speculate the Lingenfelter HP pump alone would do the trick:

-Over 30% more fuel flow than the stock L86 and LT1 fuel pump
-Nearly 10% more fuel flow than the stock LT4 fuel pump
-Increased fuel flow allows higher power levels without having to resort to auxiliary fuel systems
-Direct fit replacement with no modifications required
-Stock OE look exterally
-E85 compatible
-Can be combined with higher lift fuel pump lobes for even great flow rate increases

Of course at some point something like this at 900 HP on E85 is clearly going to be enough:
