If you're buying by the barrel, I'd go straight alcohol. (methanol)
It would have more consistency and probably make more power than the E85. Cost may be cheaper also. (it was when I was buying it anyway)

Then you have very frequent oil changes also, it's a catch 22. Is it just a drag car or street duty too?

Drag only.

A VP rep told me to go to methanol also. More power, better cooling, and more consistent.
