Exclamation 105 octane e85

I was wondering if it would be possible to tune our cars to convert to e 85. E85 is 85% ethonol. On their website it says our cars are not e85 compatible, but to convert they say some fuel system upgrades may be required. The afr's are a little different. Other than that I think our cars may be an easy conversion. As far as I know the stock fuel system is probably stainless steel, But I don't know if you would need new O-rings or some different gaskets. If anyone has any more input, this could be an easy and affordable way to produce a lot more power.

Without a doubt E85 is the fuel of the future - I say **** the arabs and others screwing us on oil and holding us over a barrel

Brazil runs about 75% of its cars ALL on E85

Our biggest hurdel is to refine the corn which is more difficult than working with sugar
