Hey all,
Been keeping up with the member's install of the 10:1 Aluminator longblock and some other builds as well that are going E85 and was kicking around the idea of prepping my car for being an alcoholic...so to speak. lol I know the typical facts like you need a lot more E85 to get the proper A/F mix and that you are to remove as much aluminum from the fuel system as possible as the E85 corrodes the aluminum after time.
But I would like to know what pumps should be used, what all would the fuel system entail, and a lot more of the specifics of how much more fuel is needed to achieve the proper mixture and how much bigger injectors would you need than a typical pump gas build.
My goal is to do the fuel system ONCE and be done with it. Next summer I'm aiming for a KB 2.6 blower for my 2v and want to have the fuel system worked out before that. I was thinking FORE triple pump fuel hat for the Walbro GSS pumps and doing it return style so I have plenty of room for power. Overall goal is to push my little 2v to 700rwhp. The block is going to be built hopefully next winter and then heads and cams will follow that and Im hoping to make my rotating assembly higher compression(maybe up to 10:1 for better throttle response and such for toying around).
I'd ask this over on some of the other forums but you guys all really seem to know your stuff a lot more than others so I figured I'd ask you guys first. And I did a search and didnt find much at all really. Any help is appreciated guys!
