Default E85 with 5.3 and Chinese GT45

Anyone running this combo on a close to stock 5.3? I want to know the hp output on 93 pump gas as well as on E85.

How much hp can 60lb injectors sustain on either fuel?

Gas station near me now offers E85 and I would like to tune the car with something that gives me room to err.

I can answer part of ur question. I have only run E85 and did so on both 5.3 and 6.0. I however have 160lb injectors. I would think 80's would be the smallest u would want to go to use E85. Even then I would think u would be maxxing them out with any kind of power.
