If you have e85 then the cooling matters very little since e85 does not have the same knock issues pump gas does. Street use on 93 and the 69 or 70mm is fine, but running on track or repeated pulls will both work much better on ethanol. We ran ours on track several times on e85, and the only issue we had was the sight glass melting when doing repeated sessions with two drivers and barely taking a break... That and the cooked brakes!
