What fuel system is needed to take advantage of E85?
I would love to go with E-85, i read about everyone making a crazy 600whp on pump gas, and I'd love to be one of them. The problem is, if you are making 600whp, and E85 requires almost 30% more fuel, you have to suppy fuel like it is a 780whp car.
Can this be done with anything less than upgraded lines, a-1000 fuel pump, and 1600cc injectors? I'd love to take advantage of E85, but my 720's and walbro are going to be limited to 330whp or so on E85 (because of the injectors). Unless I'm missing something, it seems like you need a pretty killer setup to take advantage of E85 (make over ~420whp).

there are a bunch of theads around the drag and FI sections which explain briefly about setting up an alcohol based fuel system. IMO, e85 needs just as much "fuel system" as a straight alcohol car(which would use m100 or E100)
