So what AFR is the C85 ?? I want a jug ! Lol

Hard to justify the price when Pump 85 is $3 a gallon.

Then you are over fueling. Getting too much ethanol and n the oil. Another reason not to run it. Engine wear. Same with the drag engines I’ve worked with.

Over 20-25psi of boost, sure get the good stuff. For me a Turbo LS shitbox on the street, pump E85 is all I need

goodgreef

Can a fbo lt1 with dsx fuel kit tuned. run c85 for a roll night here and their??

Should I run top oil with C85?

$13.40 per gallon for X85L and $17.00 per gallon for C85 compared to $3.35 per gallon for pump shell where I live. Your prices are higher then giraffe pussy for what little increase of performance you get.

427 CI is the optimum capacity.

I had Sunoco e85 sealed in 5 gallon drums stored in a cool location go bad within a year

Not saying that it wasn’t done but what oil or grease are you using on the rod bolts or main bolts for this build?

Best advertisement ever for pump e85. I think pump e85 is all you need. If you need more power just add 1or 2 lbs of boost. We’re already making 1300 hp on a 6.0 at 24 pounds pump E85. Not much need to change fuel change fuel, especially since pump e85 here in California is so cheap and test out exactly 85% ethanol. I’m sure e98 or c85 will make a lot more power boosted but can’t justify the cost. We’re already making as much power as the chassis can handle.

Well I guess there’s only one thing to do. Get a boosted donk on there and test them again. That’d be sweet. Thanks VP and Smeding Performance

Using a torque wrench for breaker bar...

Can you run a supply hose to my house please? thanks

C85 can make more but not standard x85. Maybe x85L can due extra octane. I doubt x98 will make more.

E85 works perfect .. I make 950 hp on my GTR … all stock components… NA motors ..total waste… for VP…

Pump e85 about $3 gallon, bet the VP is 20+ per gallon….

Another Holdener level of a useless and incomplete test.

Paying for a fuel like X98 just to pick up 15HP, along with needing to change your base fuel just flat out isn't worth it for the large majority of people. You're wayy more financially better off taking 75lbs of weight off the car or throwing a cheap dry kit on and spraying a 50 shot.

Better do a cylinder leak test before you wrap it with a Corvette. Lot of breather action.

Im running a tunnel ram on my junk and linkage is 1:1 .

Without the dollar per gallon compared its not realistic comparison it's a Ad.

What was the alcohol content of the pump E85?

Ok, so these are basically souped up blends. Of course, they will make more power. Also, an independent test from an unbiased 3rd party makes more sense without the manufacturer present. IMHO, pump E85 with content E sensor and flex fuel is the most cost effective. If need be add some X98 to bring it up in ethanol %.

Looking at their pamphlet, VP always claims X% over other fuels. I've never seen real gains other than CHP+ and Q-16. C-12 compared to VP113 were identical in my combo, with C-12 taking the win as a fuel you can forget practically for years in the cell whereas the VP113 has special storage requirements. FWIW all the Q-16 tests I've run were worth 5 to 15 HP over the base fuel the engine was tested on.

I have ran pump e85, c85, and One ethanol R in my new 13:1 voodoo and the car loves c85 the best. Runs better, sounds better, makes more power and the burn is significantly better in my application. Nothing bad to say about One R, but the octane is a bit too high for my application, and seems to make my throttle a little sluggish, and the burn doesn’t seem as complete. Sticking to c85 all the way

Thats really good stuff. And will make even a huge difference under boost and that fuel and the ability to add timing and not worry

How about 15% to 20% nitro methane!

Man I wish we had pump E85 here. Great episode brother.

What was the alcohol content in the pump e85 that you used.

It would be great if you could do a follow-up using a boosted application. Thanks for making this video.

In N/A form, you won't see too much difference, but, when it's boosted or nitrous, it's night and day difference.....

3 👍's up Engine Guy thank you for sharing 🤗

Questions about your engine build? Book a call with me via my Tazet profile - shorturl.at/oKLQR

so, all I'm saying is chevy is always envious of Chrysler and Ford for that matter why not a 396, 427, 409, 454, 455 why a 383 because it would beat anything Chevy had

Does a 4.125 crank leave enough space for some oil squirter? I have a L8T block than Id like to do a 4.125 stroker with it. I couldn't find much info on those newer blocks ...same things for direct injected pistons designed for 4.125 stroke. Would need to be costum pistons?

nice to see everyone wanting to do an ls swap. making the price for a small block chevy more affordable.

Those are reps, the OEM cup wheels will say Corvette on the lip

So cool!!!

10k less! No brainer

Does the block need to be line honed if I use ARP main studs?

Most LS guys are looking for more independent test on the stock LS3 vs ported rodmod vs the non-high rise Performance Design XS on close to stock LS3 displacement 6.2. Seems some people are not finding the same real-world results or numbers.

Got a l77 if im going a mild cam just a little step up from the stock afm cam do I need to upgrade the trunions or will the factory ones be ok

I’m not impressed with the BTR Al all. It’s making factory LS3 numbers.

I run a 315sq setup and you’d be surprised how much grip you still have in the rear with just a 315. That being said, I’ve been very impressed with my Falken RT660 200tw tires I use for autox on my 700whp c6z

The head is fully tightened on right?

Get the new cam with 110 lobe

Awesome video! Interesting to see 40 extra ci gives you about 50 extra ft-lb of torque compared to your personal engine

Hey, brother, would you ever daily this thing? Old BMW guy here, but I’m getting Ducati bug pretty bad. I live in Georgetown, Texas, but I am moving to Bee Caves soon. I’m sure we’ve ridden some of the same roads.
