Mine had a very high compression ratio, which was nearly optimal for
running straight ethyl alcohol.  At the roundup we had an alcohol racecar
on the grounds. "Drink the best and burn the rest" was its motto.  Many
drag racers are also alcohol fueled.  
But for diesel or bio-diesel, I think you have to do a lot more to the
engine to get Muscle car performance out of it.  I have seen a dash
computer on a Cummings turbo diesel with 3 buttons, normal, torqe(for
pulling) and acceleration.

wondering if anyone has any links talking about people converting Classic
Muscle cars to Diesel/biodiesel engines that the success they are having?
