Sorry if this topic has come up before, but with gas prices going out of sight, maybe it is worth revisiting - E85. For those of us that have access, E85 is about $.25/gal cheaper than regular, and yes I know that mileage is not as good with ethanol. But at 25 cents cheaper, mileage can be made up for.

I am about to start putting an engine together for my 1800, and wonder what I would need to do to tweak and engine to burn E85. I have both an SU B18 and B20e, with some knowledge of the dreaded d-jet. So what do you think?
