I'm in the middle of my 383 fuel injected twin turbo project for my 69 camaro, and I got to thinking that it would be kind of cool to run the car on e85 fuel. My current goal was 900 hp from pump gas but I was wondering if i could get the same power from e85 (considering that it's 105 octane). I know that the fuel system would have to be alcohol compatible but is there any other problems I might encounter that I'm not thinking of? How much big of injectors would I have to run since the motor needs to run "richer" Any input would be greatly appreciated as i am seriously considering this.

I read this a few days back on another forum

Looks like good stuff, with there was some close to me, I would love to try it out.
