You can make bio-diesel.

I can't wait to see this carb in action on that motor. Hot diggity Damn!

I think there may be a business venture in there somewhere....

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.

Won't it be fun when my little motor and little carb set yours on fire?

I think I'm going to have Eric weld in a temp sensor probe on the housing, maybe on the lower front area so that the probe would come out facing forward. The sensor itself is pretty small, so it should fit ok. The housing is out right now for some underbody paint and cleanup before final install, so now's the time.

I'll snap a pic of where my fitting is on mine when I receive it... looks like early next week.

dano610, but search "carbon fiber brake ducts" and there are 40 options on there right now. Some really cool pieces from Hendrick just showed up.

Thanks Ronnie.

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.

Did some one say sweep!!!!!!!
Sweep the leg!!!!

Well it's pretty clear to me now why we haven't seen any photos of this MYSTERY PROJECT..... With some kind of oddball "small block" and whacky heads and induction....







Could this be a spy shot??!?!?!?

[Flash68]

I don't know what the heck that is, but I'll trade what I got for it.
