I didn't run meth with the LS3 AGP setup I had. I even had the early-on baby 56/61mm journal bearing turbos (which I still have on some shelf (need to sell) that work great and plenty of life left in them). I ran up to 17psi boost (should have kept limited to 15psi) with high but not too high intake air temperatures.
You can definitely get along with the ZL1 pump for 650whp. Add a BAP and get 50whp more. Nowadays, the tuner using HPTuners can tune your SS pump into a ZL1 control module (no need to send it in anymore) but since you have a 1LE, you're already good; just could add that BAP if you want a little more power potential with fueling (you'll have to up your fuel injectors to something like 850cc/min or larger).
Base AGP tune will get you up and going but I wouldn't make any higher boost, higher power runs until getting it tuned locally for your full setup. Just makes sense to get everything dialed in with the full setup you're going to run (optimized!).
