One thing I'll mention is if you really want to run it flex fuel and you want to use a GM ecm you'll want a newer engine with a 58x reluctor wheel. Then you can use an E38 ecm along with a fuel composition sensor.

Other options are to switch the reluctor wheel and cam gear in the LS1 to run a newer ecm, or use aftermarket engine management with flex fuel capability.
Are there any good options for an after-market engine management system that will run flex and will work for forced induction (when I have the money to add it). I've looked before and it seems it's hard to get the best of both worlds. I've been interested lately in the Holley dominator with it's self learning but don't know if it would work for this. I'm willing to learn to tune and even bought a book on tuning the ls series of engines but something that's more plug and play would be great.

Thanks for everyones help so far!
