Lightbulb 600+ rwhp on E85, what would I need for convesion

As an experiment, Dale Cherry of The Injection Connection and Bill Moss did an E85 tune for me as part of my transition to XFI. E85 alone made more than 600 rwhp (more than pump gas and alchy) and I'm toying with the idea of doing an E85 conversion since I have an E85 pump right near my house. Presumably I could spray alchy on top of the E85 and coax even more out of her.

I found one good FAQ from the Scooby guys here, but has anyone carefully thought through what we'd need to convert to E85? Found a stainless steel tank that fits in the stock location? See Rick's for one general source)?

I'm thinking in addition to the tank and fuel lines (teflon would be used), all of the rubber connections (including injector o-rings, no?), and the paper filter that my A1000 uses, would need to be taken care of. Who has done it?

Thanks,
Scott
