I think that while distiling you should be testing density to "cut" it at the right time and not get too much water inside, no need to worry about the proper temp, just boil it.
But I'm wondering if in my case wouldn't it be safer to run an aero engine certified for AVGAS, and I could do the maintainance myself if installed in a experimental plane ("myself" means not enriching the certified hangars and paying the right price for a good and honest mechanic service).
It's more confortable for me , once I'm looking for my plane/engine set. It'd be hard if I yet had it inside the hangar.
AVGAS is the only option we have that may not change, as it's an international standard to be used everywhere by pilots from any country.

I have been told 87 not sure whether that is RON or MON
About the water/eth it will not burn... unless you distil it again. Espuny could do that and burn the recovered eth in his car in effect lowering the cost of his flying fuel. It's been a long time since I distilled alcohol ( all the way back to high school) but I think it distils at 80C, standard pressure.
