Ethanol likes a 12:1 compression ratio. Basically just add an aftermarket stroker crank and pistons to match. They are easily found on aftermarket auto parts websites, or even through your local car parts store. You can also advance the timing because of the higher octane rating which will give you even better power and mileage. On newer cars it might require a chip or reprogram. Even with normal compression and increased mileage you will save money because ethanol is cheaper.

umm if the kit works for you thats lovely really but you must promise to post when and if something brakes assuming im not saying your wrong but their are more things that should be changed and or modified itis a higher octane needs a higher compression as well and timing adj honestly the wrong block comment is curious speculation {do you honestly believe everything you see)if they put pumps in around here ill buld my truck you use it o yea you sound like a dick you must be divorcedorsingle

Gas engines are not optimized for ethanol. They need higher compression then your mileage will increase. You don't lose you gain!

Our customers are reporting an average decrease in mileage of 10% and an average fuel cost savings of 25%.

Wonder how the fuel mileage compares to regular non ethanol gasoline blends?

where can i buy the conversion kit you have?

Your lack of education shows in your post. I have been using a conversion kit for a long time now....no problems here. If ethanol is so hard on plastics, why no new gas cans for storage? I'm more of a Ford man, but since when did Chevy change the 5.7 block?

maby in a carb car but i would not put it in my non flex fuel car the plastics and fuel rail and injectors are not designed for it it will run ok for a while but things will fail vital components are not designed this was run on both fuels this vid looks funny as well its cued and resized the engine block is wrong the stopped using it before this model

Just run one step richer in your jetting and idle mixture screws for a carbureted engine. You can usually advance your ignition timing due to the 102 min. octane rating of this fuel.

You got that right e85 is good stuff and it don't harm older cars.
