Man, getting these engines to run on E85 is not easy. Granted it's a 14.5:1 compression, 430 CID. With rather large cams.

calibration is going to be challenging. Changed the obvious Stoich ratio to 9.8:1 for E85. All the cranking and startup enrichment variables will need changed. The meter pegs at 1.1 lambda within a few seconds of startup, equivalent to 16:1 on gas. Engine ran smashingly on 93 octane, but cant hold an idle on E85 yet. On throttle it's incredible. Great responsiveness. (And no raw fuel smell
)
Ah. More work to do.
