Default Methanol with aftercooler?

Is it possible to add methenol to a aftercooled vortec setup on an lt1. If so how does it work with the aftercooler? thanks.

Haven't seen it on an LT1 but why not I run it on an LS1. Nozzle just goes on intake pipe close to motor. I run an Alkycontrol system on my aftercooled system, works great. Scratch that.... works FANTASTIC... highly recommend it.

thanks. just wanted to check. I don't think the fact that it's an lt1 matters either.

Doesn't matter, meth will work great in pretty much any pump gas intercooled or non-intercooled application

Been there, done that. IAT's of 10 deg below ambient at 22 psi boost. . . until the Methanol decides to stop spraying.

Well stuff like that can happen, just as eaisly as a fuel noid might not open on a wet shot, or a scavange pump might fail sending oil into a intake. Thats no reason to bash meth systems though, most people have very good luck with them.
