Doing a build, power to the tires will be in the 800-900 range, switching to E85, will the Aeromotive Eliminator fuel pump be enough to handle the power it's going to make.

in short I highly doubt it.. I'm switching to E85 right now and I threw a BAP on my A1000.. I don't think that the Eliminator pump can flow that much more than the A1000.. I think they rate it at like 25% more.. Also think about this.. You need 30% more fuel for E85 give or take.. and they rate their fuel pumps at flywheel HP not rwhp.. I'd be willing to bet it'll give out at around 800rwhp on corn.. Throw a BAP and you're golden.. Or get a Weldon :)

that's where i misread, thought that was rwhp from aeromotive...right now i'm guesstimating where my power levels should be depending on the tune/boost/cams on the new motor....how soon are you going E85 route

I'm already done, just waiting on the tune portion.. Hopefully in the next 2 weeks I'll have new numbers.. I'm building a E85 thread now.
