Quick Question...Im tuning a d16 to run e85 as well. What kind of fuel lines are you running. I was also wondering if you knew how much cooler it runs. I already live in Michigan so im hoping the motor won't run too cool.

im gonna have a plastic fuel cell and have stainless steel fuel lines, ive heard from some people you need stainless because e85 is so corrosive but ive also heard that its not any more corrosive than regular gasoline. better safe than sorry imo and prabably would save on some wieght too with the plastic tank.

Check out our website: http://www.cornbredtuning.com

We can do it for ya

Your stock fuel lines/tank are fine. E85 is not as corrosive as the internet would have you believe.

email Andy or I with your setup and we can get the ball rolling.

Like I said, stock lines should be fine.

What do you mean by "cooler"? Your water/oil temps will be the same. The only thing E85 affects are your EGT's, but not by THAT much.
