FI Questions I am at the planning/saving stage now but want to build a good LS based stroker with a D1SC or F1 Procharger. 
I have a few questions.
1) Is it worth the $$ to build a stroker with FI such as a 5.3L to 383 or 6.0L to 413?
2) Is it worth the weight penalty to use an iron block engine like the LM4/7 5.3L or LQ4/9 6.0L?
3) Are Procomp LS1 or LS3 good aluminum heads for FI?
4) Would a Victor Jr intake(single plane carb but fitted with a throttle body& injectors) be as good but less $$$ than a LSXR?
5) I have E-85 available to me locally is this a low cost solution to the high cost of 100 octane unleaded?
6) Would a 9.5+ CR be too much for FI?
I want to thank you all for your time and knowledge.

Take a look at the build we did back at the old shop on the build above. The website is still up but the shop is closed. We started with a new LS2 block and added a 4 inch stroker crank, compression ratio is around 9.5/1. This is on 93 octane with methanol injection. Bob

I would like to build a streetable F-1 Procharged mid 9 second Pro-Street car with A/C,CD player,and stock door panels but a 8-10 point rollcage, ladder bar rear suspension,mini or wheel tubs, and at least 29X12.5X15 Hoosier Quick Time Pro's but more likely M/T ET Streets 31X18.5X15's.
I plan on running an air to air intercooler with pump E-85 as the fuel of choice.
I am still looking as far as car choices but 5 really stick out:
1) 1978-1982 Ford Fairmont wagon or sedan
2) 1984-1988 Chevy Monte Carlo SS
3) Late '80's Chrysler Conquest or Mitsubishi Starion
4) 1982-1992 Chevy Camaro
5) 1987-1993 Ford Mustang preferably an LX coupe.
I would like to run a 5.3L iron block(LM4/7) or 6.0L LQ4/9 bored & stroked to either 383(5.3L) or 413(6.0L).
my 5.3 is going in a 84 buick regal..and its a real easy swapp. (g body)
and most people do a 370 ci, and making huge power with them. whats your power goals? stock bottom ends can hold some pretty good hp.
