Did lots of research on E85 and came with this guy as my carb builder. Braswell and Hendrick Motorsports have had him do work for them.

It's a Holley 950HP main body with numerous modifications for E85. Due to E85 requiring approx 30% more volume than gas, it has #97 jets in it. The relatively small 1.375" venturi size is intentional for excellent throttle response and mid range torque, and it will be a sacrifice of hp on the top end . I figure I got Rob beat on hp by a mile, so I am going after the torque to make it a sweep. 
The engine is ALMOST ready to the front of the line. All the engines that have race deadlines move up to the front at the shop Mike said. I told him I have a really important dyno contest on the interest I am late for -- does that count?
Oh BTW, that little 781 cube motor ONLY made 1540 hp and 1200 ft lbs. They were pretty disappointed actually.  |
Imagine if your motor ever actually runs how excited you'll be.
That carb looks tiny

I have to give DG credit for that E85 idea. Too bad for him my motor will run on it while his is still a pile of parts.
