I'm afraid I didn't understand your post. The auto manufacturers are all, to my knowledge, very clear on which of their products are "E85 ready". And they are equally explicit that running E85 in any vehicle that isn't designed to use it is a bad idea. As far as a change-over kit goes, the only reason automakers build E85 vehicles in the first place is because of government incentives. Otherwise, you would be paying a steep premium for an E85-ready vehicle instead of getting it for the same price as a non-E85-ready vehicle. How many people will shell out a thousand bucks or more for a conversion that allows them to burn E85? As far as making sure that farmers get fair profits, you must be aware that grain is a commodity and obeys the laws of supply and demand. "Fair" doesn't really enter into the equation.
