I know me too. What do you think about OEM fuel lines and E85?

It looks like post 1988 cars were designed to run at 10% and ther saying
20% should not be a problem.

I was thinking about running the E85 for racing them add gasoline the same day run the car for awhile and call it good. Kinda of a flush type deal.

What were are your thoughts?

If we had a local distributor i wouldn't mind getting some larger injectors and running straight e85, just to toy around with.

either that or a blend?

Now you would have to have two differ tunes for each fuel if you where going to use e85 as a weekend fuel right?

Yes. It will require a 27% to 30% increase in fuel. Plus you can add some timing for the higher octane E85 fuel.:cool:
