converting L67 to E85



Just an update converted car to e85 running the exact stuff the v8supercars use we had to stop tuning on the dyno due to a cv shaft failure but on the first run I got 220hp

Dumb question coming. Why would you want to run E85 when it now costs the same or more than E 10 gas and gets 20-30 % less mpg.

its corn racegas! It is also a chemical intercooler because of the higher evaporative rate, and the fact that you are injecting more fuel, so you can make a lot more power (especially with more boost) with e85 than even a comparable octane, non-ethanol racegas, and much more than pump 91/93. In a lot of areas its even cheaper than 87, and much cheaper than 91.
 


Makes sense then if power and not mpg is your main goal. So on a straight stock flex fuel vehicle does it make any sense, do you see power increases?

Yes, on newer cars, Chevy for example lists 2 power figures, one for gas and one for e85, because the computer reads what fuel is coming in, and will adjust timing and other factors to get more power. If i remember on a 5.3L Chevy silverado there was about a 25HP and 40 TQ increase.
