Awesome to see this! I can't wait to see what type of power gains you see from E85...and if the stock fuel system can support it

Too bad Chevy didn't make the C7 FlexFuel like so many of their other cars & trucks! How awesome would that be?

You are VERY observant! I actually had the #3 cylinder down, which we were chasing when that screen shot was taken. All is good now.
The flex fuel was good for 30HP with about 5* more timing on the 427 and that was E70since I had 93 in the car when we mixed it in. It's reading E76 now since my last fill. My next goal is to test it with a client's LT1 to see how his car does. Stay tuned

I read that they could not get the tune completed in time for production release. Not sure if that is true or not. if true, then you would expect it to be ready for the following year.

Can somebody answer this guy's question?
Ok you add a sensor to run E85 THEN WHAT?
Retune just to run E85?
Guess you void your warentty to run corn?
If so I can see it being worth it for FI guys but a stock NA what's the real benefits?
