dont listen to what jets someone elses different carb has. If it runs good leave it. If you start to change air bleeds you will offset the whole fuel curve.

i have been running E85 now for three years now with no problems. i have a 3 circuit 1050 set up with the qwk fuel kit. i have went to 99 MJ and bumped up the timing 2 deg over my starting point in 2009. others i have converted also run with no problems. at MMW i ran a best of 9.89 with the trottle loose to run the 10.0 and john cope (CRT) ran a best of 9.94 and jerry hayes (MOPARPITTBULL) ran solid 9.80's with a smaller carb to slow it to the 10.0s. E85 ROCKS.....

Ok I started the car up today for the first time in two days..Man this thing is cold blooded . How is the rest of your cars.. is it a little lean ??
Jamie, what was the ambient temp when you fired it up... E-85 is REAL cold blooded... I wont even attempt it if its 45* or lower(maybe closer to 50*) you have to pump the hell out of it to get it to fire and keep it lit till it gets some temp into the engine

I've started my last Sunday temp. was between 40-45 in the morning u have to pump the h*ll out of it to get it to start and keep it running with the rpm up to get the heat in the motor.
