My 408 compression is 12.5:1 aka racing fuel only! I know that the carb will have to be modified for E85 and standard rubber hose have to be replaced, but what else.
I don't know much about E-85, but I have learned that the people who make it are very lax about quality control when it comes to actually seeing to it that is is, in fact, 85% methanol. Pump E-85 is all over the place regarding actual percentage of alcohol, and, therefore octane.
I wanted to use it for a fuel for my turbocharged car, but was scared off by its non-existent consistency. I don't know how to deal with that problem, short of purchasing it in 55-gallon barrels and testing and correcting it for percentage of alcohol.
I decided to buy $10.00/gal. race gas, instead. That gets old fast.... :banghead:
