I'm starting to lean this way. I wanna be able to drive my truck and take it where I need to.

 

I'm also getting tired of E85. Not because of availability, but because it seems that I've maxed out the stock 2000 fuel lines. I added a second walbro 450 and I still can't get this thing the fuel it wants over 15 psi. I'm not really interested in putting in aftermarket lines and rails. I'd love to pop off a high 10 as it sits now and then be done with it.

 

Wow. You hit 15 psi on stock lines and rails with e85?

 

I've seen as high as 17-18 psi in first gear at the track, but at that point my AFR was 8.40 (equivalent to 12.5:1 on gas). With the stock lines and filter, the Walbros are blowing through straws. Obviously it's a very band-aided setup but I want to see how far I can get with it. If I can get an honest 15 psi down the track for the entire run (with my current wastegate spring and eboost settings I was seeing 17-18 psi in 1st and by the time I hit 3rd gear I was at 11 psi) I think I can do some damage. And on my setup, the difference between 11 psi and 15 psi is huge. I converted over to E50 today and I'm temped to try even lower concentrations of ethanol (E35) to see how far I can go with that. But given the high compression of my motor (10.6:1) I'm leery of going to low on the E.

 

Did you have your wideband set to show in lambda or the ethanol scale of lambda? I believe e85 is happy at the sake lambda that gasoline is, correct?

 

Lambda is lambda.... Its not a scale and there aren't more than one lambdas. Everything you said in that statement doesn't make sense. Lambda 1.00 is stoich for EVERY fuel out there.

 

I just have an alcohol sensor so it does not matter if its 10% or 85%. Not much to it. You will need the volume covered on a big hp build though.

 

Lambda is current afr divided by stoich afr.

 

7-8psi off launch, how are you going to prevent the tire from at the track or anytime from a dig? Can you dump the pedal or have to ease into it?

 

Oh and a video would make my day haha
