305 I am just guessing.. hope you make 500.. How do you like the E85, was it difficult to convert, did you have any corrosion issues?
Won't make 500 with this turbo. It's just too small.

I love the e85. Makes all kinds of things possible that are just dreams on pump 93. It's higher octane than the racing gas that I can pump down the street, and because of the cooling properties of alcohol, the intake charge at the valve is much cooler.No corrosion issues at all. Ethanol is extremely tame as compared to methanol. And the conversion was cake, seeing as I run a standalone. Just had to buy injectors with higher flow, and tune it like normal except with more timing.

Specter, you have the number. I just added it to the list for the heck of it. If he wants to win, he'll have to change his guess.

Yea. It's half of a very small v8. But the thing's as tough as most v8s, so I'll just keep blowing more air into it until I find out how tough it really is.

And being a 16v OHC motor, it probably looks somewhat similar to a flux capacitor after looking at a pushrod v8.
