As far as I'm concerned they're considering bringing it in on a larger scale. AT the moment it is sold at independent service stations and I believe some larger farmers are planning on producing it in bigger quantities, so they must know something.
AvGas simply isn't on the agenda. It is far too aggressive for my liking and I am not prepared to pay the risks or the prices.
The methanol blend is interesting but I really need a fuel available from the pump as I don't have the means to store any fuel at my residence.
Sikyne nailed it on the head. E85 does not have the power as gasoline does. But by increasing the stock compression ratio your differences in power compared to a gasoline 11:1 engine would be fairly surprising I suspect.
Personally I am expecting good results from this fuel. AT the moment I am double-checking my compression ratio just to be ABSOLUTELY sure that I have it right and then I'll move to basic jetting.
EDIT: Thanks dd, I wouldn't expect Ferrari and Datsun to come together very often! I could always try water injection to cool the high-comp charge but I really don't have the knowledge.
