With all the talk of raising GA fuel tax by .75/gal, I wonder how much effort/reward a company like Superior/ECI could get if they were to design a modified XP-360 engine to specifically run on Ethanol enhanced auto fuel.
I'm not an engine expert, but if they could change/modify appropriate seals, valves, etc. and come out with an XPA-360 (XP, Auto fuel) version of an engine, it seems like it would be a big seller.
Even if they could come out with an engine that you had to put a $5 per tank additive in to make it run on auto fuel, it would still be way worth it in the end if these GA fuel taxes get implemented.
