e85 lq4
#1
not sure if I posted this in the rite spot.... I'm finishing my lq4 and 4l80e swap in my 2003 rcsb S10 and just need exhaust and a tune but before I get a tune I need to find out what injectors I could use to run e85 at all times I live rite next to a station that has it so why not... is there a factory injector I could get away with? I really don't wanna spend a lot of money its a budget build... future mods are cam, stall and some spray I already have the cam just not ready for that quite yet its a 228/232 112lsa 600lift

Don't forget about the fuel pump aswell, E85 can require up to 30% more fuel.
But I'd think 40-50lb injectors for a NA motor.
And honestly I'd stay with 91+ pump gas for the mods you are doing, just makes life easier and a extra thing you don't have to buy. You'll also get way better gas mileage.

Unles you raise compression substantially, install a turbo or blower there is no need for E85.
As stated it will reduce mpg considerably and require a fuel system far beyond what a "budget" build will ever need.
That said, i would still find some flex fuel injectors as your build will push the oem injectors on that LQ4 beyond their capabilities.
Might aswell aquire a complete nnbs flex fuel intake system to drop on that LQ4.
It will help alot in taking full advantage of that cam.
