But from what I have heard it won't be long till they stop useing corn. They are working on changing to things like wheat grass. You can plant alot more wheat grass in a field,for less money than corn. But what will this do to the octane level?

If I can find a source I'd like to have 100 percent ethanol, and a little gas injector in each end of the manifold for starting like methanol guys use and just run 100 percent what ever they make.
