It only does this with nonferrous metals?
You guys should see what sunoco purple does to shit when it sits. I personally have seen two fuel cells (1 ATL and 1 Fuel Safe) break down over a winter and send jelly to the pumps.
E-85 is a great alternative to race gas in a street car, it's just not a cost effective alternative to pump gas.
I have run straight methanol in a aluminum cell with aluminum lines to a all aluminum motor and haven't seen the amount of corrosion in those couple pics. I wonder if you didn't have some other problem happening.
Where are the nearest E85 stations? I've only seen one and that was in the Ghetto. I don't even remember where it was at but it was somewhere on the way to Cabela's.
Is anyone here using E85 in a non-flexfuel vehicle without a tune?
Buy made in the United States. Otherwise your job might be next. Unless you already wear black shoes and a visor with golden arches on it to work in which case your fellow american has already failed you.
102 stations in Wisconsin
I have heard of a few people trying it. It's not a good idea.
are there any other things to change other than the tune?

Not in my experience. I used all standard fuel system components. 42lbs motorsport injectors, 255lph walbor pump, stock FPR, etc.
Just make sure you fuel system is big enough. At 400RWHP though an auto, I was maxing out 42lbs injectors with it.
i wonder what the old vortech would need in the TBI for injectors

From what I understand flexfuel vehicles have two maps in them. Once the computer notices it needs a lot more fuel it looks to see if it can advance the timing too. If it can, it jumps to the E85 map.
When I was looking at part numbers there seems to be no difference between E85 and E10 vehicles except sometimes fuel pumps (higher volume I assumed), injectors (again, higher volume I assumed), and ECM/PCM.
While alcohol is definitely more abusive to just about everything, almost everything that was built in the last 15 years can already take ethanol. It doesn't really matter how much ethanol is there as long as it's there.
So, I'm not worried about E85 eating shit, I'm more worried about the ECM/PCM knowing what to do with it.
