Thanks,Raff! How cool would it be to go less than a block to get a barrel of fuel? There is also an ethanol plant nine miles north of me but I don't know if they sell direct...




I dont think they can sell direct... they produce
100% alky so if they sell it it HAS to be cut with
gas otherwise its alcohol(drinking stuff) and has
to be taxed as such

When I changed over to E-85 I was working so I payed
to have it changed over... I sent my 1050 Holley
to QF and had them do it since I didnt have the time
.. it came back and was basically dead on.. I did
jet up 2 jet sizes but the rest was perfect.and this
is what I got back from them

Edelbrock makes a mech. fuel pump for alcohol.A friend of mine has one on his 582 cu in BBC that makes over 900 hp,says he would not change over to a belt drive or electric pump if it was give to him.I am sure they offer it for a Mopar engine as well.

You guys are so lucky you have to worry about fuel prices already! It's still snowing here today, diesel fuel in my 93 W250 is 4.09/gal though

Ted I will GUESS thats what they put in mine... but
being that I sent my carb to QF I will only guess that

my bowls due to it looked bad... then it was flow tested
