My E85 powered RT10 on the Dyno

[Scotty2Hoty]

I converted my 96 RT10 to E85 gas since its only 2 bucks a gallon and all over around south Dakota (instead of the 9.50 a gallon for 110 Leaded) and thought I'd post my dyno sheet and a video. The tuner said they set it up on the lower end and there's likely more I can get out of it but I stated it was a road driver not the strip. I did lose around 90hp at peak but likely could get some back with a more strict tune. The goal is to take it back in around February to the have nitrous tune added in. Not sure if I'll ever use it but sure would be nice to have if one of the new Vette's ever pull up next to me on interstate

Tell us more about the conversion process - larger injectors, fuel pump, fuel lines?? A fuel consumption comparison (MPG, GPM...) would be interesting as well. I'm not a big fan of the E-85 for many reasons, but you cannot beat the cost/octane.

Mileage should be about 25% decrease...if the same principles apply with my Tahoe when I use E-85 vs E-10.

I like the way you think...

I'm gonna be honest I don't think about mpg when I drive it. Since the conversion was just done and then parked in my garage I have no idea what I will actually get though. Its currently 2 degrees out.. Personally If I was worried about mpg I wouldn't probably drive a viper My goal was more to be able to keep a high octane rating and not worry about finding someone that sells 110 leaded when going on a trip somewhere. I had to have dual walbro in tank fuel pumps installed and 1000cc injectors.
