Your engine isn't going to last long with boost on 93 with road course racing. So E85 could get you several more years of use out of the stock bottom end.

I'm asking because I have never considered an OEM American supercharged car to be suitable for road course racing. I've always viewed them as street hotrods that can be used as daily drivers if driven conservatively versus aggressively (i.e. no prolonged WOT operation). Jim G |

The LT1 has cast pistons and 11.5:1 compression ratio, both of which are NOT favorable for 93 octane + supercharger. A stock LT1 needs e85 to run boost safely.

LT4 HPFP $850 LT4 FI $632 DSX low side $1000 DSX Flex Fuel kit $300 So that adds up to about 3k but then when you add labor, tuning, and tax it is about $4600. A lot cheaper than an engine rebuild though. |

A lot of it will come down to how the car is used as I already mentioned in this thread.
