It can be done, it'll be a pain in the butt,and there is no benefit to it. E85 is about 30% less efficient therefore requires 30% more fuel but it is not 30% cheaper. The only gain would be slightly better torque but in our engines it wold not be noticeable. E85 is only beneficial in forced induction applications where it's higher octane makes it a cheap alternative for $26 a gallon race fuel.
