I had AJ Castilina(SP?)do a Holley 1150 conversion for me several years ago, it works great 
Keep in mind that any alcholol will eat any aluminim parts that are not hard anadised to resist the corrosion

The conversion is a bit involved and more than just jets and bleeds. You will need to use a set of 2-circuit metering blocks, drill the main wells out larger, change the emulsion circuit and enlarge cross channel and IFR. Will also want to enlarge passages in the boosters.
Run a good titanium or SS needle and seat at least .130. I prefer .140 Titanium from BLP.
If you need some help with parts or would like me to do the conversion let me know.

Google mark sullens e85 carbs. Call him and send your card to him. I wish I did, trust me on that.

I do not know our member that does them, sorry. But I will second Mark.
He did a 950hp for me around xmas, dang it woke the motor up. But the issue which I thought was a lean condition was a crack in a cyl.
So Mark got the nod on the Dominator needed for the new motor. When it is dynoed I will give a side by side with a 1150 converted by someone else, purchased parts and built and Mark's carb.
3-4 weeks for that.
