Zip.
first let me ask, do you mean ethanol alcohol or methanol? Gas & ethanol alcohol mix fairly easily.You can buy E85 straight from the pump here in the midwest. That's 85% ethanol alcohol & 15% gasoline which is 105 octane. Runs well with the right carb or EFI system.
Methanol is a little more tricky, don't know anyone who has done it with good results.
Hope this helps!
