Default Help me decide a fuel system

Just looking for options and everyone's thoughts on a fuel system for my car, I'm tore between 3 options and i have read so many forums I'm going crazy. Car 02 z28 has stock fuel system in it now motor is on the stand 408 10:1 compression t6 s480 auto: option 1=e85 one station in my town has it no idea on what quality is next closest is over a hour away. 2=c16 2 local shops says they carry it a can get it. #3 93+meth (last option). Looking for 900rwhp car is 80%track car 20% street car gets trailed to the track only street duty is a occasional weekend trip to town for cruises or shows or a Saturday night meet. I know e85 is cheaper but the cost of the fuel system itself is more, and the fear of my only station (1 pump) running out or bad quality would be screwed. C16 is expensive but the car is hauled can even be hauled to town (8 miles away) I even thought about a dedicated system wired to come on at boost if I can find room, have not bought any fuel componens (rails,injectors,pump ect.)so I thought I would get everyone thoughts, I know i looking at a good chunk of money any way i go, pease dont flame me to hard and thanks everyone.

Kinda been working on figuring out a e85 system so far I've figured, -12 from tank to MF 4303 -10 out to a T at the firewall -8 to both fuel rails (elderbrock?) With a -8 return with a big screw on type (post) filter 127-160 fic injectors, haven't really looked much at a tank yet or putting a bulkhead in stock one yet.
