I am not into the alkihol thing , played with it way back and what we learned was if it ain't just wright ya make LOTS OF SPARE PARTS . Temp humidity play a big roll in it Played with it in a blowen 487 Donavin (sp) and a 1650 oliver with a turbo . When we would hit the combination just wright they made lots of power and if we did not lift the head then we threw the crank out on the ground . On the 487 if it was to lean it was piston time or putting the blower back on after it came back from orbit or welding up the block from a couple rods that did not like the inside . We do not have much E85 here what we do have is 87-89-93 no just how much alkihol is in it depends where you get gas. My wife drives a 03 Durango with a 5.9 to some but to me it is still and old iron block 360 and engine that has been around since 72 or was it 72 can't remember just when it came out . Now it will tell you how god the gas is by how many miles ya get before ya have to rob the bank for the next fill up. If you get gas at Shell here in town it will do in winter just shy of 16 mpg if we get gas at the Smith station it will do over 16 If she gets gas at Wal Marts it gets 13 when they change the gas for summer blend and sofar we are still getting winter blend on summer blend it will do 17-17.5 Wife works for the Girl Scouts and is running the wheels off it and she wrights down every mile and every gallon that goes thru it . From what i have heard you get less on E85 then reg. gas and that stands to reason as with what little i have played with alkihol it takes twice alkihol as gas to make pony power. and have had to drain off alkihol from the oil pan on the 487 between runs when we had her FAT .
