Drom e85? Why drum?

A single 044 won't be enough. Should have saved the money from buying the drum, filled at United and bought a $200 Walbro e85 pump imo.

E85 isn't overly common up here so depending on where he lives it could be quite the trip there and back. Also helps when tuning if the tuner isn't close to an E85 servo.

^{I'm running from drum E85 now and pretty happy with first results at low boost
What size walbro in tank you got? Sound like it should be fine with those mods..
I'm addicted to pulling up at the lights and letting the fuel smell catch up}

Update:

So we now know the limits of an external 044 and wall bro intank with the the surge tank.

Topped out at 534whp at 24/25 pound.

Leaning out with any more boost.

Now awaiting the second 044 hopefully close to 600 is what I'm hoping for

Haha fully agree with you about the smell.

Smells so good.

And the workshop I help alot at always has drum e85 so I just run what they have basically pretty happy with the results so far. Look out with the second 044

And yea just is a bit of a journey to united especially if it is peak traffic

Yeah mate. Bit of a trip. From my place, which is only 15min from the city, it would take about an hour in traffic - if not a little more. Hence the use of drums.

Nicely done mate! Also, with any pointers, Noy would be the guy to ask as he's building a wicked 34 on e85.

Nice man thanks for the info will definitely keep noy nd the rest of you guys in the loop.

Appreciate any info to help.

But I guess we have proved many a people wrong with not being able to see 500whp on e85 with 1 external 044

[mattis96]

What size fuel lines and return and injectors are you using?

How are you going to upgrade fuel lines now with second pump?

Sorry noy for taking a whisk to reply.

I'm using a 500hp wallbro intank will have to check for the exact pump it is

[Cyifly]

So here's the result guys with the one external 044. Will post up once the second pump is in...
