What needs to be done, in order to run E85? If you tell me to search, rub my nuts

 

Do I need to change my fuel pump, lines, etc....

 

All you need is an aftermarket fuel system like the CJM stage 2, larger injectors, and a tune.

E85 is fantastic for power/cost ratio vs. race gas, but you will use 15-20% more fuel with it vs. normal 93.

Personally, I think meth injection is a better bet from a power/cost standpoint.

 

charles said he's not sure his CJM return system will handle E85

 

Aslong as the lines are stated to be safe with E85 you are fine. E85 from what I have heard takes alot more then 15-20%. I have heard its nearly double.

 

It is a lot more, not exactly sure on inejector size for Z's and G's but for evo's the inectors have to be at least 1,000cc's and a bigger fuel pump and most people do the lines as well. E85 is awesome though, it would be nice to see someone do it on their car. Search around on google, there are a bunch of e85 info.

 

The CJM system should handle E85... however, there are a few aluminum parts in the kit. Some of the fittings, and the rails of course. Some rails are anodized, some are not... anodizing is supposed to protect the aluminum supposedly. I have built some Vipers with bare aluminum rails that run E85... but that was just last year and we havent taken things apart to check on it.

The hoses in the CJM kit will handle it since they are teflon. Might want to see if the aeroquip AQP hose used in the gas tank for the return correction kit can take it or not. Probably, but who knows.

 

Now I know that's not true....you don't need 100% more E85 to run at the same power level as 93 octane.

 

Im going to try E85 here shortly. Hopefully everything goes well.

 

Good info here:

I didnt mean 100%, but it is def more then 20%. I know the ususal rule is you need twice the injector to run it safe.

 

Thanx for the link?
