I am interested in doing a comparison of spool/power characteristics.
I've been running a GT3582R on a 2.5l for years

Yes I am.

Im pretty sure NASA does. And doesn't PCA just state a "street" fuel..(could be another sanctioning body I read that from) E-85 is sold at gas stations. SO.. Yes. by my definition.

I really can't see PCA policing the fuel you use , it would be ludicrous.......wait for safety reason , yeah i can see for safety reasons...

Its in there some where...

it has to be gasoline based...which based on my interpretation you can run your own blend of E49...!

That looks great Duke!! I think that will work very well especially if you vent the nose cone.
I've noticed a lot of heat coming out of my D9 vents too so whatever we can do to help with removing heat from under our hoods is a big bonus.....even in countries under 6 month snow blankets!

Hans B, really like your widebody stuff. I think we need to have a talk, and maybe me and Duke visiting you at the track...

ah.. so nice. Love the hood.
And Wayne, E-85 burns quite visibly. I recorded it and put it on you tube bcuz someone from NASA wanted to push the issue of using this fuel. Visibility was about the only concern. And it looks just like pump gas burning.

It's amazing how much heat that blows out from hood vents when the fans are running. This vent should help the intercooler a decent bit too.

Thanks. Hans' guys did a great job. "Too bad" my car is too nice to cut up and do a full wide body kit on...

Repeat after me... First engine, then body. First engine, then body. First engine, then body.
