So I have to make some changes really soon to my flatty if I'm gonna make the opener... Outside of my rigging I need to change,  I'm thinking about pulling the edelbrock 750's off my blower in favor of 2 600 double pumpers,  and setting them up for E85... I can't run a chiller with my setup.  My tunnel ram was frosty cold,  my blower and plenum are hot as fuck, iv got all the timing pulled out for pump gas and it been OK,  but I think cooling the intake charge with more tune ability from the holleys and maybe being able to put alil more lead to it might make it happier!!???  Your thoughts???  The thread is yours gentleman!!  I'm all ears..  👍👍

Why can't you run a chiller?

My intake and plenum won't allow it,,,  it's a different setup,,  looks Bitchen,  but can't put a chiller on it...  Looks like a weird cross tunnel ram..

Looks badass yo!👍

Okay gotcha. You're going to battle heat no matter what without a chiller but you're on the right path if you're not going to run one.

The car guys would kill to have our ability to cool the charge like our boats are able to do with unlimited cooled raw water access.

I thought about E85 but it's hard to find at the river where my boat lives 99% of the time. I think the Terrible's and AM/PM in Parker used to carry it years ago but not anymore. I've stuck with a chiller and AvGas.

I also play at big river 99% of the time,  but E85 is becoming available close to me so I can just jug my fuel out with me instead of getting hammered for Parker oil premium .which isn't cheap at all!!!

I'm in the Big River area as well. That's a very cool setup you got. I'll follow along as I'm interested to hear what you do and the results.

I already know my main E85 PLAYER ON THIS FORUM.. Isn't gonna chime in,  even tho he runs it in everything he street races!!  Fucker!!  Lol

my bro actually tried to talk me into setting up my engine for e85 when we were building it but in my little town it wasn't available so I ditched that plan

Have you looked into water/methanol injection? It will cool the charge significantly for you.

I'm running mine right in front of the carb, but this is after induction on my set up. I run 1/3 F & L racing methanol, 2/3 distilled water. I've experimented with more methanol, but going beyond 1/3 requires fuel mixture jetting adjustments. I have a very efficient intercooler. I picked up 100 rpm on the top end with a $450 system.

Call Rodney at Prometh, formerly Alcohol Injection Systems. I worked on his phone system for him and traded for my methanol injection system. He's a good guy who will give you accurate and honest advice. He's not about the sale, it's about the solution. He runs his business like I've run mine for the last 20 years, straight forward honest advice. He's in Oxnard.

That would be awesome if you could spray it out of a nitrous style plate .. I do keep forgetting my intake has plugged injector bungs tho.....  Hmmm maybe another option.....  Thanks j2

Just curious,  is this a normal issue with blowers or just with your particular setup?

Yes running induction creates lots of heat. If you can't run an intercooler then a lot of people run the water/meth injection to simply cool the charge increasing horsepower.
