i know the price of E85 is different all over the country.

but with its 105 octane and should it be about .50 cents less then 87 octane, it mite be about a wash to run E85. in terms of cost per mile..with the 10.8 to 1 compresson.
but should E85 only be .10 .20 cents less then pump gas its not worth the trouble......

with the lower 9.2 to 1 E85 would need to be more like a $1.00 a gal or so cheaper to be a wash.


any way its just an idea...
