Oscar Mike Foxtrot November Golf... that never gets old! Yeeee hawhhhhhhhhh!
I'm running 93, from what I understand the fuel system doesn't have the capacity to run E85.
Mike, if I may (and please forgive me)...
What he means is, it has the capability (Flex Fuel 5.0), but now that the engine has been modified by the addition of a supercharger the stock fuel system does not have capacity enough to supply the volume of E85 needed for correct mixtures when under t3h bo0zt.

I didn't know if you had one of the few that were flex. I may have that confused with 2017 5.0s. That's my understanding too. If I could run it, I sure would be, my '12 had about a steady diet of it, and the difference was very noticeable.
Wait... wut... oh... hrmmm... mayhaps the '18 5.0s are not FlexFuelz...?
Whatever, he cain't run it anyways. He's too damn fast, now.
haha...Thanks...Mine was E85 capable, I ran several tanks in it pre Whipple, it ran very good. The problem is it takes too much E85 to keep up with that kind of power level. It just can't deliver enough E85 and could go lean.

Gotcha, makes complete sense. I'm No where near the power level you are now, but it makes me wonder about my 3.5, might be the same thing even stock. I know with my tune it wouldn't be enough, although, I think it's "woot", runs E30, and I think he's tuned too. Too much work to be blending my own, I'll just stick with 93.
Went back out tonight to the farm with the VBox your guess was closer then mine, the launch wasn't so good either. It was only about 82°F today though. Next time with the stock tires, hoping for a sub 4 seconds.
