Not to stomp on your thread but this rookie would like to know what advantages/disadvantages of E85 Vs Pump gas?
Going E85
- Thread starter thgt500
- Start date
Well...The biggest one i can think of is driving around on race fuel, full time, for cheap money. E85 is 2.88 a gallon here. You get all the same benefits of race gas: can run more timing, more boost, cooler iats, etc. One of the REALLY big ones for me is availability. It is also avaialble at the pump in my home town.
More progress
Clutch done, Rails, injectors and blower on now, the hat and pumps in, relays and wiring is done.... just need to mount regulator and make some lines now. EGR is not being deleted just capped after sips.

Appreciate it. Feels like its taking forEVER! Hopefully firing and logging this weekend.
Rails match the blower pretty well, great job. Can't wait to see the numbers
That is awesome! Wish I had e-85 close to my house. Even my Lawn mower would be running on E-85 if I could.
Great to see that you are not wasting money with gasoline, URT, whatever it is not gonna compare to E85, E98 or methanol.
Just feed that thirsty baby A LOT of alky and you will be fine!

Wow, you are going in a new direction. I'm sticking to the old plan and hope to achieve the 800+ horses you did with the spray. We don't even have the corn fuel here in Canada so will be sticking to 94 pump gas and race gas with the 75 shot. :beer:
Looks good
Nice Viper!
Still going with a small shot of spray. Just different fuel now. the E85 has been expensive to get into.:whine: Almost done now. Added a couple items: 2.85 upper pulley and ditched my stock axle backs for some deletes. Should be Nascar loud now which will make my neighbors happy i'm sure.
Copy quick shots
Fuel filter getting ready to go in.

Another animal in the Lethal Garage.
This beast is also getting ready to be fired up. Owners name is Albert and i think he is on here. I will let Lethal/Owner disclose specs but rest assured this thing will be a MONSTER.
This will be the route i go after this motor lets go.

Looking forward to the end result. I'm in the same boat, URT dried up and I just paid $100 for 5 gallons of c16. This build is def influencing me more and more to make the jump to the corn.
on gasoline correct?
Yes! There was no intank technology at the time I considered an E-85 swap for my 500. The Aeromotive 1000 was the most you could get at the time. They claimed 1000 Hp was the max on fuel, E-85 would be 30% more demand which wouldnt be enough.......
Long enough to beat the fastest 6 speed GT500 in the world on the street. LOL! I'm hard on shit and push it to the limit literally. At 850 wheel I would say it's safe with a driver mod. A novice driving, not long. I was at the edge with my stock motor and I pushed the FRPP motor to the edge...I'm a 1%'r
