I've had the edelbrock setup + Delicious tune + Delicious dbox for a year now and am tempted to go e85... but am wondering if it's worth the risk on a stock motor.
Are these motors safe with e85 and the edelbrock charger? Delicious advertises 330whp, and I've heard that's borderline with the stock rods -how many edelbrock + e85 guys we got running safely in here? Opinions? |

No track time on mine yet, but a few spirited canyon runs with that setup and no issues. Also running the JR oil cooler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Didn't list my cooling mods, but I've got the JR dual rad setup + a vented hood. Will do track days with the car, but if I did go flex fuel I may just run 93 on the track for safety... |

Any others in the forums running e85 + edelbrock on a stock bottom end? How many miles on the setup? Track days?
Worth the risk? |

Running about 6-7k miles now since I installed last year and not a single problem. *knock on wood* No track days, stock clutch is not holding well in 4th, 5th, 6th. Like to start slipping around 4k. YMMV on this given the condition of your clutch.

Just going to report this, I blew a hole in my stock header with edelbrock superchager and delicious tune with D-box. No other engine performance mods at the time.

Interesting. I think an aftermarket header is the first thing I would install before going S/C

I wouldn't have gotten a good deal on an ACE A350 ceramic coated if I had done that. Also, I'm not one for a lot of noise, so I was enjoying my OEM Audio stereo setup.
