ZL1 with whipple....pulley?

Hello everyone, currently running a cam(38% ), ported tb, headers, ati damper and 15% od lower pulley(9.17) and i just ordered a whipple, dsx aux fuel pump kit and flex fuel. I'm trying to figure out with my fuel upgrades and 9.17 pulley what size pulley I can run on my whipple. Anyone have a similar setup? Thank you in advance

It seems like regardless of blower type, people end up in pretty similar situations because 10psi is 10psi, regardless of if it came from an Edelbrock, Whipple, stock LT4 blower, or a Magnuson. In theory, the zl1 has lower compression, so you will actually see less boost than an LT1...so you will need to run more boost to get the same performance as an LT1, right?

Once you run more than say 10ps on an LT1, you may run out of fuel and have to be less than e85 (e60 or something). What psi were you getting with the stock LT4 blower?

Do you plan on building the bottom end of your motor?
