E85 and what it takes

[Brianawd]

ost all gas stations that sell e85 move over to e70 the first of November and switch back to e85 the first of April.

Correction, I just found it for $2.09/gal just a few blocks from the house. Even better. Never knew the place was even there. I always got it on the way to work on the other side of town. Yea me. I mean yea E85.

Just found out the Mobile at the end of my street sells E85 for $2.79/gal. Of course, this would be the Chicago winter blend as you guys were saying.

I run E85 in my SR20 240, its been 2 years now, changed my oil like every 10,000 miles cuz I dont care and my oil looks fine.

 

I think there have been a couple supra's to make over 1000hp on e85 alone so making the power isn't a problem I would just worry more about the consistency of it to other fuels in a performance application.
