I think a couple of guys on here have pulled over 1000....I made 879 on 93 octane with no meth, at 12 psi....I only run 7 psi on 93 now everyday just to be safe, if I turn it up I put 110 in it...

I have been running over 800 rwhp for over 2 years on 93 with stock cubes. The tune is the whole key to a long life provided the motor is built right in the first place. Big cubes are where its at if you need more power then 850 rwhp reliably.

very good power for sure... only negative about e85 is you need to run something like 30% more fuel to the motor if I remember correctly.

Yep, I ran out of a Magnafuel 4303 at 1200hp and at 96% on the 160lb injectors. Adding another pump and switching to the 240lb injectors.

Is it even going to be able to idle with 240lb injectors? If the purpose is pump gas I'm guessing you plan on driving it a lot. Why not run a 16 injector setup?
