E-85 is definitely an option. A quick twist of the power select switch on the dash can allow you to switch between 2 different calibrations, so you could set up for pump gas on one and E-85 on the other (or any other type of fuel, high octane, leaded, meth, whatever you want to run).

The table switch feature is prepared to handle 2 different fuel requests and allows to swap fuel table, ignition advance table, air/fuel target table, stoichometric point, boost table and overboost shut off, and startup and warmup characteristics. Each feature can be turned on or off individually. It's also able to run 2 different banks of injectors so if one were inclined to keep the primaries fed by gasoline and the secondaries fed by E-85 or methanol, it can handle that as well.

I'm comfortable enough with the project to speak about it more openly, if you're also comfortable Ron. The a/c controls have been tested, and your car is on the dyno. Our superstar tuner had to run home today due to a family emergency (his 1-year old came down with something). Hopefully he's back in tomorrow so we can get back to testing everything out and setting a base calibration.
