WVO and Stage IIs

Can you run a hopped up 7.3L on biodiesel? My plans were stage IIs, HPOP and D66 some day but I still want to be able to run WVO bio when i get around to making it sometime. But with diesel prices now days it will be pretty soon.
Thanks
John

Yes you can run a HiPo PSD on both BD and WVO.

There will actually be a bit of a loss in power going to WVO or BD. I think they say about 5 or 6%. Less BTU's than dino.

Maybe, but you won't notice it. I don't notice a change b/w dino and wvo.

Well the power of stage IIs minus 5-6% is still a lot over stock so it will still be worth it. Wont have the black smoke though. Just saw 4.09 a gallon gunna have to start getting stuff together
