Keep an eye on spacecoastspeedshop.com. Been busy with opening up and getting the website going and all. Once things smooth out I'll have time to post pics and all and have prices. Cheaper than a typical wiesco build and we have solved the rod bearing issue associated with these engines.

I was looking at 120lb for my camaro build. Think that is too big? a separate feed for each fuel rail to a common regulator. Start with 1 255lph pump with the possibility of adding a second later on.

Default 16:1 compression E85?
why not 16:1 compression E85?
I have read a lot about E85 and don't mind running it in my car. check this out, this might give you an Idea what you can get away with on E85!

Browsed through the pages there dont see where it says hes going to put boost on it, thats why he can run such a high cr.

Don't read too much into static compression ratios , cams have a lot to do with what you can get away with. In the motorcycle world, we commonly have 13:1 compression ratios and run 89 octane.

some one in there made the comment of putting a blower on top of 13:1 static compression ratio.
