Message i know most of the basics of it but want to know the fine details what exactly needs to be replaced in the feul system if you are to run ethanol ? and also what is the effective octane of e85 ?and finally how much more feul aprox does it take to equal the power mad from gas (sinc e85 has a lower power per unit)? my main concern is how big of fuel injectors will i need to get to handle ethanol at certain power levels for example

gas
555cc = 500hp (roughly)

ethanol
555cc=450hp

just rough here but am i on the right path or does the higher octane compensate for the loss in flow capability ?
