E-85

I am thinking of converting the Torino over to E-85.Seems like a good alternative to what I am using now- a 50/50 mix of 110 race gas and 93 octane pump.I realize gas is cheap now( as low as $2.00 a gal in some parts of Missouri) but I also know it wont stay that way long.It seems the spread between E-85 and regular unleaded is anywhere from 10-25 percent pricewise, and I have a station only 10 miles from me selling it.If I switched is it that critical to check the content of the E-85 I am buying.That is one of the issues I have been told to be careful of.The engine is an all aluminum 427 stroker that is at 11 to one compression wise.Pro-systems and Quick Fuel both sell E-85 carbs and regulators and I wanted to know if anybody has tried this yet.Thanks for any opinions and advice, as always.
