E85

Ok everyone, I did try to search for this info and came up empty, so Im sorry if this has been posted already.

I am curious if anyone is running E85 in their F-bodies (specifically 93-97') I have been looking at a few "plug-in" modules that are supposed to convert the vehicle to "Flex-Fuel" but I am apprehensive about it. I have done some research and it seems that the vehicle would need larger injectors (like 30% or more) and possibly a high-flow fuel pump (Walboro 255?)

Anyone tired one of these or anything else to run E85 (either "flex" or dedicated?)

Here are the links to what I speak of.....

Any information or comments are appreciated. Thanks everybody!

Did you try a "search" on the LT1 Based Engine Tech forum. I know there's at least one person running an LT1 on E85.

I searched "ethanol" and found this thread, which includes a response from someone running E85 in an LT1. There were other threads, but some of them were pretty old.
