    thanks for the input. Nice to know that you can travel and be able to refill on e85 to complete your trip. I have to add another fuel pump but will add another one when I build the bottom. Would it be better to run a dual fuel rail so I can take advantage of the 1000cc I already had and just add 550cc to it or just run 1200cc and up injectors?

    it depends on what power you want, thats the determining factor.

    e85 from the pump will support over 1000hp, atleast on a 4 banger it will i know that much. in the winter they actually can sell as low as E70(Class 3 minimum 70% eth) in our state so ask or call before you pump!

    Clark or big Dave, do you know where to get a barrel of E98 or E85?
