e85 no intercooler?
Setup is a 402ci lq9 block ls3 heads. Forged bottom end. Around 11.3:1 static comp. Cam is 234/242 @ .050 115lsa .665 lift. Will be running pump e85 (tests at around 92%)
Going to be putting up to 20psi or so into it on kill running twin s366 borgs. Will be street driven, drag raced occasionally and generally given a hard time.dum
Possible to run with no intercooler? Will look at meth injection if needed

I think compression is high on your setup for no inter cooler. I ran no intercooler for a bit. 9.5:1, e85 with meth cruising I had iats in the 170's on a 85 degree day. On a short burst they would climb to 230-240. It's hard to see what the combustion temps are doing, but I wasn't comfortable with it so I bought a tread stone.

A little high on compression, if doing so tread lightly on the tune up and don't just look for a boost number. Highest I have ran was 10.5:1 with no intercooler at 28psi and the car went 8.3@170 @3400lbs. Camshaft, chamber, quench, and piston design could make or break that though.
