Well,the engine is  normaly aspirated 2387cc engine with IDA and 11.8CR.For the fuel ,I will have a new system for the next season: mallory 140 series pump+regulator,3/8 ard line+dash6 (already running under the pan) hose and real competition fuel cell with foam replacing the original oval one.
With a A/F sender such LM1 what would be the goal comparing to the one needed with unleaded fuel?

I'd be interested to know anyone's experiences running E85 with carbs, i have thought about it this year but wasn't sure if it would cause problems in the float bowls?

cheers
