Default '57 blown bbc bagged pickup

my uncle and cousin are getting the work done right now, it's their truck, i'm here trolling for a bit of info about how you guys are setting up for E85. if at all. i know the particulars, stoich, things that need to be replaced, etc, but i'm trying to see if anyone's done it already. well, i know it's been done, i want to know if a member's done it. they'll be running a blown 454 with dual carbs, other than that, it's still up in the air. any reccomendations?

HotRod magazine this month had an article about running E85, its the one with the red 1st gen Camaro on the cover.

i'll have to grab a copy of that. my hot rod teacher (UTI) wants to build a 601 big block and run it on E85, with a couple big turbos. should be downright nasty.

If you want some info about E85, head over to Chevelles.com[/URL] . Theres a few guys over there that have already built/run E85 BB's. Go to the performance section.
