            the work done on the stang was done by that shop in SD, right?

            Do they have an EPA conversion license?

            Technically, it is a federal offense to convert a non-E85 car to run on E85 unless you have some crap from the EPA saying you're allowed to do so. I wonder if the shop that did the work had all the right paperwork.

            Remember kids - your government is stupid, and a good chunk of it is in the pockets of moneyed interests, and a good deal of the power is in the hands of unaccountable committees or licensing boards.

            I suspect if homebrew E85 conversions start happening more frequently or get more publicity, a few people will get in trouble for "EPA license non-compliance"

            BTW - I think this stang is awesome, and the guys that built it are awesome, and everyone that wants big power should be running E85. But if if it starts to get too much attention, expect a crack down. 😕

                  If you noticed, Andy has partnered with Diablosport. I am guessing they have an idea of what is going on. 😉

                                They're going to hack into it next week. Other than that it feels fine believe it or not..

                                        probably going to have to modify the front suspension for duals if you do that though.

                                        Probably stick to a 6 row and just run down the field at 130 instead.
