This weekand, Tommy let me use his E 85 carb and I went to US41 to try it out. I like how it runs cooler, I like the 10th I pick up. I am going to make the switch before Norwalk. The car ran 10.13 @ 130 1.35-60ft 10.14 @ 131 1.36-60ft 10.14 @ 131 1.37-60ft then I had an issue with the carb going WOT, I was bending the throttle bracket. I am going to fix that and try to get the car to run 10.05 to 10.10 E 85 is the hot ticket.

about 10*-15* cool, But its the time it takes to get to 190*, I can sit in stageing lanes with the motor running and not worry about getting too hot before a pass. ya the cheap part is cool. E85 was $2.05 in town
Great to hear and it's $2.39 here but better than 13 dollars a gallon I pay now. I cant wait to use it.

On a normal 4150 conversion you are looking at 350-400.

The only thing I dont like, is it runs fat when on the intermediate circuit when driving back on the return road, I wish I can go with a two circuit E85 carb, all E85 kits for Doms are three circuit.
I finally got my Lm-1 back so sometime soon I'm going to check mine out again.... I got it idling nice now (on my 396ci)but I need to check the mid again

Who does it for that price?
Send ajcasini a pm. He knows what he is doing and is great to deal with. I will be having a little talk with him in the near future.
John is right I do the carbs for that price. There are several others out there that do them as well around that price.
There are also some DIY kits out there that will work for the 4150 and Doms. The 4150 is a little trickier as to make the carb work best on E85 a booster change is normally needed.
If anyone has questions pm me or email at ajcasiniracing@hotmail.com

i love it too i hope this isn't considered a highjack but what are you guys watching in the weather do make dialin decisions, temp, humidity, water grains, what?
i run pretty consistent a round 2 or 3 hundreths from day to night
John I do not watch the weather normally when I am running normal brackets at PRP. However I do notice that the humidity seems to affect my ET the most. If the humidity goes up the car slows down.
