all my friend are chaging over to e85. nd i was wondering if there a way i can do that to me r\t... my buddy have a 86 supra having 900 hp and getting 30mpg on e85........

 

yes you can ,try searching for E85 conversion kits on the web,haven't tried it no E85 in my area

 

Kind of curious why you would want to invest in a change over. I found the times I've run it in my work car, the lower up front cost of the fuel, was largely negated by the much lower mpg that I've gotten with it, basically I was spending the same amount/mi, and having to stop more often to fill up. This is in a factory "flex fuel" car.

 

Why would you wanna waste the money? Stock cars do far worse on mpg, perform worse, plus you would have to pay for the kit to convert it.

Your buddy's supra is a different story, forced-induction vehicles do very well on e85 when tuned on it due to it's detonation resistance.

Unless you plan on building your motor, boosting it, then tuning on e85, it's not worth the time or money.

 

DING! And let's not forget that fun fuel system corrosion if you're not equipped for it. I had a guy call this week and ask if it was OK if he put E85 and a bottle of Octane Boost in his non flex fuel van. Well, that's the short version. It was actually a very entertaining conversation. Why? How Come? Really? you know....

 

I wouldn't do it either. you would be fueling up more often than using reg gas. 87octane. Dodge had the some problem when they were using CNG in the ram vans. Mileage was in the crapper and they had to fuel up more often.
