E85 conversion(just laying the groundwork)

dmhenderson

Pulled the trigger today. Car is at Hill's. Just bought the 1000cc ID injectors and a 340lph fuel pump.

Fun story: I have to figure out a way to get a bunch of E85 gas to Frank for him to to tune it (and for me to drive it home). He has a race shop he uses but they charge like 3x what I'll pay at the pump. I'm going to go to home depot and buy a couple 5 gallon cans, fill them up and have my girlfriend haul them up there since she works in the area. She is going to be pissed.

Dreamer, I'll post dyno sheets for you once we're done. With the lower pressure/heat, I'm going to tell Frank not to hold back on power and see what he can do.

Edit: Also Frank caught a small oil leak that was giving me f'ing fits. I knew it was coming from the general vicinity of the SC oil cooler but couldn't nail it down. Turns out there was a pinhole leak in one of the oil lines that only manifested when the car was pushed hard enough/oil got hot enough. Nothing like waking up to a puddle of oil underneath a FI converted car ajsdafn
