I am new to Stangnet and this is my first post. I have been building my 68 mustang since I was 16 and now that I am out of college and have the money I am finishing it.
I just contracted a local engine builder that specializes in ford performance engines to build me a 408 stroker. The engine I'm building is "suppose" to put out 600 bhp. The builder told me he can easily build the engine to run off alcohol instead of pump gas simply by changing the setup on the carb and the fuel delivery system. He said that alcohol right now is cheaper than pump gas and it would add about 30hp over gas. I wanted to get everyones opinion about setting the car up for alcohol. What are the pros and cons?
I want the car to be as aggressive as possible so that is not a concern.
