So has anybody done a E85 conversion on there 2013 yet? I would like to do it to mine over the winter but don't want to be the first one to try it.

I never used E-85 on my GT500 but I just did a complete fuel system from Lethal Performance on my 96 Cobra convertible with a Termi swap'd 2.3 Whipple. My car made 600 whp/tq on 110. It picked up 50 whp/tq just from the E-85 swap now 650 whp/tq.

That's what I love the stuff!

I plan to do a swap eventually. Can't beat the bang for the $buck$ either

one main reason I won't do it now is because there are no stations near me, the closest being 25 miles away, but at least I could still run 93 when not near a station...so I will consider it in the future

You're fortunate to have 93. All we get out here is 91 and E-10 in the winter.

just used a different search, says there is one in coral springs on wiles and one in pompano on the turnpike station right next to me, hmmm


how much is a E85 conversion? what does it entail? I do like the fact you can use regular 93 if need be

I run E85 on my lightning. What I did on my lightning was a bigger fuel system from the pumps in the tank, bigger lines, fuel rails, adjustable fuel regulater, bigger injecters and of course a tune to make all this work. I like it, there are stations that sell E85 in my area so its not to much of a problem finding it. You can really push the timing running E85. If E85 is in your area take a good look at it.
