Need advice on fueling build e85

I need advise in order to build a good fuel system capable of handling 600 WHP on e85.

My current set up consist of

Built engine: rods and pistons (stock bore)
3" borla exhaust
In tank walbro 255
1500cc deatschwerks
Ets exhaust manifold
ETS 4" front mount
PTE BB 5857.

At the track the car suffers from the dreaded fuel surge issue with left hand turns.
So I purchase a surge tank to remedy this. But I recently have decided that I want to use e85 instead of regular pump gas.

My current plan is to run two external walbros in parallel with one running of a Hobbs switch. But Ive been told this wont be enough for my needs and I should look into using two bosh 044 instead.

Can some one that already has experience with e85 guide me in the right direction. I want to do things right the first time. I don't want to have to later change things later because i was been lazy and not doing my research.

You think a single bosh can supply enough for 600 whp on e85. If i can that would be great.

I dont think the BR double pumper will eliminate my fuel surge issues. If anyone knows better let me know.
