Default Alky on a N/A motor, worth the time and $$$?

I've got a N/A GTO with a lumpy cam, and some other goodies... but no spray or boost. Currently putting down just over 430 at the wheels.

My question is, is methanol on a normally aspirated engine worth the money and time to install it? Is there much of a benefit for a daily driver/quasi-track car?

Not worth it for NA....it's best benefit is reducing heat for a FI car.

meth will produce more torque than gas and will also burn twice as fast and make your oil really nasty.... methonal on a street car is a big no no... although it is faster and more consistant but its only for a hardcore drag car.
like my 69 camaro with a 509
