[QUOTE="mach330, post: 13820968, member: 96397"] Not sure on where to read about it. I am just going off of the data that I personally have collected with the help of a very competent tuner. Most "pump" E85 is a blend of 70-85% ethanol with low grade (87 octane or lower) gasoline. The octane of ethanol isn't really as high as most people believe. The fuel's properties such as how it burns and the the cooling effect from vaporizing help prevent detonation. On our dyno pulls 93 oct detonated, E30 had some detonation, but E50 and higher had no detonation. Hope this helps. If you want any more info about running E85 or are looking for parts to do the conversion, send me a PM and I will be glad to help you out. [/QUOTE]
