Default E85 / n20

im almost ready to start my upgraded fuel system. the engine is a 12.5 CR forged 355 LT1 with a high dollar top end. would this be enough fuel to support E85 / 200 shot?

340 LPH aeromotive in tank pump
racetronix hot wire kit
60 lb high impedance siemens injectors
stock lt1 fuel rails
TUNE

Does this look to be enough to feed the beast? im hoping i dont have to go to a dedicated fuel system for the nitrous. Another question, should i go higher on the compression since i am going e85? or stay at 12.5...let me know if im missing some things

Where's the experts? Can I pull a 200 shot and run e85 off of a 340 lph pump & 60 lb injectors being pulled from stock rails? Let's hear it

hard to tell, since you will probably be on the verge, but ive been very surprised at what my 340 has been able to handle. I would think if there is any restriction at all it will be in the rail or injectors and not the n2o pulling off the rail. ive also had good luck pulling fuel before the rail

thanks for the response. my main concern is trying to pull all the needed fuel from the rail for the spray/e85 and retain the factory lt1 rails. i hear that the stock ls1 style rails have a hard time keeping up, but the stock lt1 rails dont seem to be as much of a weak spot. if nobody thinks that i need to spend $800 on a dedicated fuel system, then i wont. i will put that money elsewhere. i think if i was using a stock in tank pump, then i would need the standalone fuel supply. but with a 340 lph in tank pump with the racetronix harness and 60lb injectors, im hoping that will supply all the e85 ill need
