Well... I cannot say for sure if the factory fuel pump will be able to keep up in volume with E85, but I predict that it will. I am personally running an Aeromotive 340lph fuel pump upgrade inside the stock fuel pump housing... my car is twin turbo and there was no chance the stock pump was going to keep up, especially with E85.

But based on some hear-say I have come across with people who have tested the limits of the stock fuel pump in higher HP scenarios, I think there is a good chance it will be able to keep up with a NA E85 car.
