The nylon/hard line on the z is fine for e85 it is the same stuff all the flex fuel vehicles use. There isn't much to change and the motor LOVES timing so from what I have seen there really is no point to not run full e85 (unless you are purely concerned with keeping fuel costs down lol)
Wow, I never would have guessed you would max out fuel on a 91 tune! welcome back to the port injection world for me lol.

Good info. appreciate it.

With the proper setup you can indeed bump na horsepower by 70-100 I'm up 65 from my baseline now and hoping to add another 20-40 to it.

not just e85 there was a lot of other stuff involved, I'm hoping between the cams, the new fuel and playing with the exhaust setup and tune i will get the rest of it. I'm into 5 digit territory with this little experiment so we will see what happens.
