Default run car on moonshine

If I have read correctly you don't need 200 proof, I think even the big
plants don't reach that.

There is a ton of info on the web and growing on this, sure would be nice to
save some cash and do just a little to help not fund the killers over seas.

Gas will soon be $3/gal. I live in corn country, its $2/bushel. My car
will run on E85, that's 85% ethanol, 15% gas.

So can I buy/build a high efficiency fermenter and still that does, say 5
gallons a day? I'd run it all winter and use the waste heat to keep the
shop warm. Seen any good proven designs? How about one that uses a corn
burner boiler (readily purchased) as the heat source for the still?

BTW, I may need some quality control help to make sure its really 200
proof VBG
