So if You were to do the lash cap, and the lash cap only, (NOT do a Z06 high pressure fuel pump or cam with a bigger fuel lobe), then how much HP is safe without meth, and how much with 100% meth via single nozzle?

So no meth and no cam? You will need lash cap, our fuel system for the low pressure side, and potentially the z high pressure pump. I don't honestly 100% know on the high pressure side and that's because all the ones we have done have meth too because they went through the pump gas/meth path than finally woke up to the wonders of e85 lol.

Actually I am asking the question from a boost only perspective, no E85 usage consideration at all. Meaning If someone were to do basic supercharger kit, 100% meth, and a lash cap for the fuel, what HP can they get to safely? is 650-700HP doable and safe with that setup? (assume stock motor with some bolt-ons otherwise)
