tell me about your setups and mods etc...I'll be switching to ethanol soon and I am interested to see how you guys are running. I am running 60lb injectors now with a the fore precision works top hat, twin GT pumps and twin FPDM's. I know the TS guys running ethanol are running -8 fuel line from hat to rails and 80lb injectors. will all this be needed with a ported eaton as well?? What are your before and after numbers?

I am one of the Twin Screw guys, and I suggest getting the 80# injectors even for the Eatons. They cost about the same as the 60's but allow room for growing.

The other mods sound good.

If you already have the 60's, then they should be enough with the Eaton.

If you still had to buy them then I would have gone to the 80's, but the 60's will work. :thumbsup:

The only negative thing is that is uses more fuel and you have to fill up more often.

That's about it.

Just realized you were from FW. If you have any questions I am local. :beer:

Gonna be switching here soon also. The car has just maxed out the 39's period, even bumping the rail pressure still has the car going lean a little. Going to go with bigger injectors and pumps then tune for E85 since there's a station 2 miles from my house.

Keep me updated. Are you going to tune it yourself with the E85? I want to switch bad but out of money since I got Nikki Knocked up.

Yeah I plan on it, sure I'm going to enlist the help of some of the guys on here who've played with E85 already though.
