725 HP, almost 700 ft lbs, 850 RPM idle, on 89 octane.

But this engine DOES rob the bank...

You could do a rough calc on that based on what most guys picked up in et in the 1/4. I think most posted between .05 to .1 or even a .15 improvement. If they would post the mph improvements or their actual previous mph you could get a rough idea. Looks like around 50-60hp depending.

Just remember that the timing has to be changed as well. Switching carbs alone does not 'optimze' the combo with the new fuel. It also requires a change in timing.

The problem with E85 is that it is not always 85% ethanol. It can range anyway from 70 to 90 percent which will mess with the jetting requirements of the engine.

This is what stops me from playing with it.
