Anyone know a site where i can get a cheap good e85 conversion kit?

There is no E85 conversion kit. It would be a tune and injectors.

I would suggest full bolt ons first then get tune for E85

Will Kravick

Rather than kit...um set? And of course.just getting goals and prices down.

80 lbs injectors are $180 i think. Since youre 2006 you have to use trifecta.

Whats the minimum cc for e85?

you could reasily run e85 on 60's with bolt ons. i knew someone running e85 on 42#'s with just intake and exhaust.

Will Kravick

But more pounds increases performance right?

No. Completely wrong. cc and lbs refer to size of injectors. Increasing cc or lbs would just let you have more room for future mods and less duty on the injectors.

I actually do recommend 60s instead of 80s because youre not boosted.

I know 80s is minimum when boosted. Not entirely sure on N/A since many people dont do it.

Incorrect.... Injector size for e85 depends on mods. I can get away with a 2.8 m62 with 60s by feeding lowend fuel more and making it leaner up top. ... I recommend 80s but they are not needed.its all in the tune.......... Also if someone had.60s and wanted to go to e and to a 2.6 he or she.can get away with it as long as they went.to a blend of e:.. I've done it plenty of times...

Will Kravick

So with bolt ons do 60s. Hmm. So just allows more fuel. I thought e85 was thinner, is that why you need more in the engine to combust?

In order to burn at e85 stoich you'll need to burn around 20-25ish more % of fuel then gasoline..... Op if all your doing is n/a and bolt ons 42s can do it for you...... But like i said it depends on Tuner..

Hmm..

Will Kravick

thought that popped into my mind,
should i upgrade to the 60s when i do full bolt on even without e85, would the increase performance at all?

No need unless boost or e.. you can upgrade. To stay lsj stockers and get tuned but your injectors wiill be fibe
