What cc are the Trick Flow 225's? Stock Block 6.0l? Your Cam, stall and exhaust would all compliment a Proharger. If it's a stock block, you must be running 59-60 cc chambers. You could swap out your 225's for some 317's (71.06cc) and that would drop you to about 10:1. You could easily run 10 lbs at that compression.

If your running the standard TF 225's with 65cc chambers, the 317's should drop you to around 11:1. There are plenty of LS2 GTO's running Prochargers at 8lbs of boost.

Either way, I see Meth in your future. E85 would be great on with either combination if you can handle the 200 mile range on a tank of gas...

Yeah If you could lower your compression a hair and slap a D1sc on there you have the cam and stall to compliment the blower. If not put a 150-175 shot on there and let her eat!

With E85 8psi and 600whp is doable.

If you run e85, I wouldn't see the point in running a meth kit. So no need to worry about that. I agree with the others that your compression is on the high side for FI, especially if your thinking about one of the wannabe blower thingys that mounts on top of the motor. They tend to create a little more heat than a centri. However, a centri with a good intercooler and e85 could possibly work and you could run a decent amount of timing, just not alot. I say do it.

BTW, good luck with z06's, I raced one a few weeks ago twice from 50 to 120 and couldn't get away from him. Those things roll out on the highway.

Bigger fuel injectors and possibly a higher output fuel pump on our trucks. I was told that that's all u need.. I know you can't have any rubber gas lines.

Don't forget the tune. Or was that obvious?

lets hope it was obvious




I would add a D1 and a 3 core intercooler to the OP's set up and keep the boost to 8# and with the fuel mods and a good tune he should be fine (but I don't know the history of his motor or set up) and if he hasn't done so already a regear should be included in his plans if he is gonna continue to run the larger tires

stock lines are fine, everything since mid 80s have come from the factory equipped to run ethanol fine..
