E85 like alcohol is less affected by high temps. Now humidity is another story but still not as bad as pump gas.

Edelbrock headed 408

422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph

We barely never hit even the mid 80's in Sweden. Normally 60-75 I'd say. Mostly rather dry air. Bring a jacket! smile

Yup a100F is rare and darn hard to live in.

That said E85 has its advantages,and shortcomings.

For what you are doing a stroker has alot of advantages, Just dipping into the 6.s can be done with some nicely done Edelbock heads and a small streetroller in a stroker. and wont require you to go bananas on gears and converter in a reasonable light car.
Also remember that surviving the miles is a huge part of the deal.


I believe Flyfish has a very solid combo for what you are doing.
Oh Btw you have a PM or two.
