Talking 8-71 blown pontiac engine on alcohol

Hi, just wondering if anybody has ever run a blown pontiac engine on alcohol and what were the pro's and cons. i have a 6-71 blown 400 engine in my 74 firebird, right now, and it runs great but in the future i was considering building a 455 with a 8-71,with carbs,that would operate on alcohol,i know about the fuel line size having to be increased, and a alcohol compatible fuel pump, along with the anodized fuel lines, anything else? how well do the carbs work with alcohol?
