Default e85 Engine

I've been toying with the idea of building a forged 347 (stock block/crank) over the winter. Since I'm in the midwest I can get e85 pretty easily, 105 octane on the street with an engine built for it would be sick. Does anyone know what kind of DCR e85 can handle?

im runin 12:1 scr should handle 14:1 dcr depending on your setup but reserch before you commit. also runnin an lt1 so i can 12:1 on pump gas they love high compression. the most wild e85 setups are turbo.

12:1 scr should be no problem, contact Andy @ dynotuneusa.com in Watertown, SD for your tuning. He has done probably close to a 1000 vehicles now that are flexfuel. Everything from daily drivers to 1000 hp race cars on corn

No way, I'm sure this is a typo
