At the fuel getting place lol, J/K... no my fuel guy... Sunoco is what I've been using. Just gotta think of it like this... You need 30% more on average in all of the following: Fuel pump/fuel flow, injector, fuel in the tune... so make sure you go up more than 30% on your pump, flow, and injector to have room to grow... and by flow I mean volume not pressure

Kurt (and anyone else), after a metric ton of reading about it. I am guessing that this set up will work. I want to run the magnafuel 4301 pump with #10 line with filter in front and after the pump. I don't know if at the rails it needs to "y" or in one rail crossover then the FPR and return #8 to the tank. Also I haven't read much as far as the tuning. Is it harder to tune on it or follow the same protocol?

I dont think there's much more to the tuning, add fuel and timing.

I noticed know one said using a E85 kit, like white lighting sells. Are they no good? I want to make my truck run E85. Cant you get by with just bigger injectors and tune? I got E85 pumps everywhere not a problem there. I had a old 91 ranger with a 2.9 i ran E85 in it I didnt do anything to it ran for years with it. People use E85 to pass emissons and pass with out a cat even.

From what i have read is that the main issue is just getting the the extra 30% fuel to the cylinders. The only reason i want it is because of the price of that vs. race fuel.

just enough gas in it to keep it from being moonshine!:spit:

Your injector size X 1.47 = that will be what you need for injectors for E85
