I guess you would have to chop off the entire rear section to make it look like a truck first.

 

This is a Silverado/Seirra forum for new models. Most people here would have no clue or even think about it.

I thought all 2015 Suburbans were flex fuel capable. Maybe you can check that out first.

 

If not, :

 

Maybe this will help. It seems to be pretty simple.

Even at a savings of .50/gal, your net fuel costs will go up, your range will go way down, and in a newer car like a 2015 Suburban there will be no performance improvement as the ECM allows what it wants to.

 

Any remaining engine warranty will be instantly voided, of course.

Check on that just because it doesnt have a yellow cap doesnt mean its not flex fuel capable

E85 is a complete waste for anyone who doesn't live in the corn belt or somewhere that it's cheap enough to offset the 33% worse gas mileage for 15% more combustion.

Damn the 5.3 would be a force to be recon with those e85 numbers ..383 and 416 right ?

[KnappAttack]

E85 makes for a very nice power increase in a 5.3 designed for it!

 

I have been running it in my 14 and It will flat out drive away hard from all my coworkers supposed powerful Hemis in their Rams!

 

I don't see that big of hit in fuel mileage. About 2-3 MPG is all. Around town is where I see it more of a hit, on the highway it's not much of a mileage hit at all.

 

People pay big bucks for all these tunes, cold air intakes, headers and exhaust, when all they really need is E85. I love the stuff! Ups the power from 355 to 380 HP! Better use 4WD if you want to drag race!

 

I find it cheaper to use E85 over regular gas in per mile.

[cmysstailights]

Highway no difference, town i get 11.5mpg. Avg drvng 75 to80% city driving avg 12.5. Cant beat the power increase. E85 is 1.45 gas 87 is 2.19 and 93 is 2.65

Not just about fuel economy. E85 gets a decent power gain. Get a clue before being so dismissive.

[SarahsGMC]
