Default Z06 - Headers, CIA and FlexFuel - Stock Fuel System

Anyone out there running full e85 with cold air, headers and a tune obviously on a completely factory fuel system? I know it's possible to run full e85 with a cold air, but anyone add headers and able to run full E?

I run this exact setup. Zr1/19'Z06 pump will max out around ~70% Ethanol, The ethanol around me usually tests at ~63% or so I run full pump E. In Houston, I had to blend a little bit because some places would test at ~80%.

Great information thank you. My Z06 is a 17, so I'd probably need to through a low side fuel system in the mix.

If you wanted to run full E yes. The factory lowside on pre '19 MY should carry you to E30-50 depending on where you live.

Yea I don’t want to worry about knowing the E content. It’s great to know that the high side can handle it without meth or a cam.
