That was much better! And it agrees with what an engine builder told me yesterday. For torque on the 351w i want a little fuel flowing very rapidly through the system. Unfortunatly he dosnt like the idea of e85 for street use and seems very reluctant to touch such a project. Seeing as im not looking to take 600* hp 1/4 mile at a time he didnt see any benefit to e85. And if ill just be burning 30-40% more fuel to do the same work then i may not bother either. Not even from a financial view, this truck has a small tank already and dropping the mileage that much means id have to strap a drum in the bed to get anywhere.

Needless to say that kinda took the wind out of my sails. But im not done yet!!!

Also this guy said i should drop compression to run ethanol????? That statement alone made me think i should keep looking for a builder.

Any thoughts, thanks for your help and paitence with me.
