Converting your 7 to run off ethanol?

Has anyone thought about converting their 7's to run off ethanol?
I'm doing some reasearch on how to make a vehicle run off ethanol and was wondering if anyone has done this to a 7 yet.. I'm planning on converting the 7 to run off pure ethanol if I can figure out how...

any ideas?

Just want to try things out maybe ethanol would run better in the 7, and cost less $$ for fueling... I'm doing a daily trip of 50ish miles a day as a commute.... and from what I'm reading ethanol runs alot cooler so I suppose it should be better for the engine..

find a mid 1990's Geo Metro 3 cylinder. Great MPG for the price of the car. Cheap to insure.
