seriously considering changing over to E85, anyone doing it yet? Any info you can share, I know the carb needs to be changed over, besides that?? Same fuel pump?? Do you run a regulator like the alky guys do? Carb size? Jets??

Trying to do my homework before investing

First, make sure it is available in your area.... couple of guys in Lompoc looked into it but the closest supplier at that time was 90 miles away.....

Got a station 5 miles away, $3.49 a gallon looking for a cheaper alternative to race gas, without going to alky

We ran it in a limited until they changed the rules, same theory as alky considering it is 85% alcohol. Need to run more fuel, we bought the carb from Competition Carburetion.
