Get it tuned for e85 if that is your desire.

Stankys let loose at 600ftlbs on e85.

You'll want to watch your injector duty cycle.

I made 579whp 600ftlbs @90% duty on the 740ccs on E85

23:30:51 06/05/18
So was the 579 hp at standard 43.5 psi fuel pressure?

Yep 43psi.

I doubt Stankys failure was rod failure - more rod bolt fail

Key note here is when torque is high a low RPM.

Note torque is something that is measured by a dyno.
