[DeTomaso] E85 Octane

[Adin, David]

Recently, while perusing the latest issue of 1800SENDME a ROADRACER, an
editorial about E85 fuel caught my eye.

 

This article claimed:

E85 pollutes less;

E85 costs less;

E85 has lest energy per gallon

 

And E85 has a higher octane rating.

 

Could one jet for E85 and run more compression/boost/spark advance and
get more power?
