[QUOTE="97markja, post: 10885882, member: 103255"] I emailed the guys over at e85mustangs and Steve Shrader was nice enough to email me back. Figured I'd post it for everyone. A 4v high compression motor on E85 is going to make some power if tuned properly. So plan your fuel system accordingly. I don't think dual pumps is going to be enough, and if it is, its going to be right on the edge. You should definitely do the triple pump setup and make sure your fuel lines are large enough to accommodate also. Just to give you an idea, I just completed my new setup, a 281 cube 2v engine, 10:1 comp, ported 2v heads with some good cams, 17 psi on an S-Trim Vortech and it made 680 rwhp. It was already running out of fuel at the upper rpm range with an A1000 pump, and I switched to a Magnafuel 625, which still runs out. I've got a Dual A1000 setup sitting in boxes, ready to put on next week hopefully to be able to handle the 100 shot of nitrous I'm putting on top. We tried the nitrous on the dyno, and it made a whopping 773 but was drastically out of fuel, so I'm going back in a few weeks for final tuning to see if it will touch 800. I've worked with E85 quite a bit, and the one thing that always gets underestimated is the amount of fuel flow you need. NGK TR6 is what I use on these E85 setups. You don't want to go any colder because its hard enough to get ethanol to light when it's cold. Gap to about .027-.029 and see how it goes from there. 80 lb injectors should be fine.
