blown injected alky/e85
Hey guys, I'm looking at a 481 BBC on alky.
Diamond Pistons w/gas ports Total seal rings Callies stealth crank Oliver rods Block is a GM iron block filled to water holes. Block is o-ringed.Heads are Brodix "Big Brodie" BB2 heads that were sent to M2 race systems and are CNC ported and have full jesel shaft mounts Comp Cams roller lifters, and push rods Clay smith 750 lift on a 114 centerline advanced 4 degrees Magnesium 14:71 litttlefield blower and weiand intake. Enderlie Injection with K valve and 110GPM pump Compression is 11.75:1
I just recently read that methanol and magnesium can create a junk blower. e85 is available near me and would probably be cheaper, safer, less maintenance and still make more power than I need on a safe conservative tune.
My questions are...
Is the compression too high for e85 and a 14:71 (am I gonna have to underdrive the nuts out the blower)? Would I need a square barrel valve for e85? Is the 110 pump too big for e85? Is the cam gonna work ok with e85? Regardless of which fuel, does this sound like a decent combo? (Obviously an aftermarket block would be ideal)
This will be going in a 19' Daytona jet boat Thanks in advance for any info/advice

Sounds like a nice motor. That's a big azz blower on that thing. What's good about the big blower is it will still make plenty of boost when underdriven and will create less heat. You should be able to use E85 with this combo. The fuel pump is probably bigger than you will need, but you can return more fuel. You will need smaller nozzles. I would talk to some of the reputable injection people out there. They can set you up with a combo for E85 & tell you if you can use the pump & barrel valve that you have.
