I don't know much about E85, but I believe I've read on here before you need bigger injectors to run it.

I was going to guess 650-700rwhp. You lose 30% flow but pick up a crap ton of octane to assist in more power.

As mentioned you will need better injectors.

Art's Z made upper 600's whp on E85. Then sprayed N2O with a dedicated fuel system. Check with Lethal Performance here in SA, They do alot of Vettes on E85.
