Anyone running E85?
My brother has been in my ear about running E85 in his V and started to do some research on it. Anyone running it in there fbody? Looking for a quick run down on what i would need to get to my car running on e85. I have upgraded fuel pump/rails/36# fast injectors.

You have a E85 pump near you? When i started my build there were no nearby stations at all so that kinda put an end to that

Newark and East Orange from what I have heard. Both not to far from me. Car isn't a daily so it's not to big of a deal to go get it when I need it.

You'd need bigger injectors, depending on what pump you have, you'd need a bigger pump as well as one that is compatible with E85, and a tune.
Although if you're gonna do that, i'd suggest setting the car up for flex fuel, I'm planning on that this summer with mine.

Interesting that the E85 supply is in the 'hood and not closer to any of the drag strips. In chatting with some E85 users on other boards I'm on seems like E85 or at least flex is the way to go.

All the cool kids run E85. If it was easier to get, I would likely use it but since that's not the case, 93 and meth it is.
