Default E85 Stabilizer

My Z06 has an LS7 tuned for and running E85. Does anyone here run E85 and are you using any kind of stabilizer additive to combat moisture?
Thanks

get an ethanol content sensor plumbed into the return line with a gauge then test the fuel with a quick fuel tester before you put it in the tank... if the gauge ever reads a higher % content than what you know you put in then you have a moisture problem, if the gauge stays at or below what you tested not then don't worry about it in my opinion
