By anychance do our 2002 Mustangs with the 3.8 V6 run on the E85 Fuel? I am curious because my 05 Silverado Z71 runs on it and there is no difference just the price is way cheaper.

You will need bigger fuel injectors and a tune and you're good to go

Where would I get a tune to run E85 and what size of injectors do I need? And I can't run E85 just like that?

Uhm NO. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible-fuel_vehicle

Verify your vehicle with Ford first, but Mustang is not on the list.

It may cost less but your mpg will go down (about 3-4 mpg) so you don't end up saving much.
