Title: E85 & compression ratio!
Post by: Jøran Larssen on September 10, 2009, 13:07:31 pm
I have been running my engine on E85 this season with good results, and would like to continue running on bioethanol for the next season as well.

The engine will be disassembled very shortly, and the plan is to buy a set of new quality pistons & cylinders (I have been running Mahle).

Does anyone know how much compression you can go for with E85? The engine has now got 12.4:1 compression.

I am also interested in recommendations regarding what cylinder set brand to use.
