As far as running smoothly, 51 to 85 is probably not too bad, as ethanol is so forgiving. For our cars and performance tunes, expecting to work over this range is likely death. Some Mitsubishi EVO guys try to run dual gas and E85 tunes and they are figuring out that this is crazy with the somewhat new E51 lower limit.
