    now educate me here...Ive read a couple articles on this stuff and it is interesting but they did swaps on mostly stock cars.

    what are YOU going to benifit from? just being able to run a smaller pulley with cheaper fuel?

    what about my car for instance? Im already running a ton of timing and all is good....is there power to be had?

    and does anyone sell it in drums?

    The benefit you will see is from a (cooler burn = more power) and $2 a gallon instead of $11.

    Yes you can get it in a drum.
    Good info here.

    its just alot of work to "hopefully" gain some power.

    and since its "rated" at 105....what happens when you start running the motor to the point where you should be running say C16 (if you were still on regular gas)

    That is where the cool combustion temps come into play. Cool = less chance of detonation. Those are great questions to ask on the e85 forum. Get answers from those who have first hand experience.
