Earlier today my son Erik and me were having a discussion about a video he watched. Apparently according to the video E85 makes more horsepower on the dyno than premium gas. I'm not sure on the specifics of the video but I looked it up on the net. Basically what I discovered was that E85 is about 105 octane and comparable to 110 race fuel. It burns cooler, is resistant to detonation, and does not corrode your fuel system as I thought. You have to tune the engine to run on it but you have to do that for the fuel you are using anyways. What are the thoughts of you all? I still have more research to do on the subject but it does look promising.
