    Opinions on a e85 tune.

    I have a lm4 5.3 with 241 heads, ls1 intake and Lingenfelter gt2-3 cam. Setting it for a turbo this fall and want to set it up on E85. E85 is pretty available in my area and I was advised by some other turbo guys its advisable to run it with the turbo set up.

    The combo is in a 2600lb S10 truck and it is equipped with a 3000 converter if that makes a difference.

    Does anyone have a good base line or suggestions for me? Prefer speed density on the tune.

    Really big injectors is my suggestion because it will require 30% more fuel, same with a larger fuel pump.

    I like pump gas if you know you aren't pushing for all out power, can still make big numbers on 93 octane and keep your mpgs.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
