Since there isn't much available parts at the moment we will see and test its limits.. Going to start out at 8psi and see how the injectors and fuel pump take it.. the stock injectors are already 96lbs so we will hope and see if its enough.. We will monitor everything as fas as the a/f and I think we should be good since the system is already capable of plenty for the e85.. We will hope to see and as soon as its finish ill post some vids...

From what I have read on LS1tech from a purported GM insider (I'll post the thread if I can find it), the fuel pump and injectors shouldn't be a limiting factor until you get to crazy horsepower levels (this guy said 4 digits).

Here's the thread, take it with a grain of salt. Post 835, couldn't find Bigg Gunz exact post: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...l#post17029959
