Who here has heard of it and who thinks it will work. I have seen several videos online and I have been researching it a little. I am not interested in getting 50 miles per gallon, I just want the Octane.
Any one have any sources of info?

"After a little searching there seems to be a lot of testing and data out there that says that using supplemental hydrogen in a gasoline motor considerably increases the knock resistance and increases combustion stability, so in effect it is increasing the octane rating contrary to what one would expect looking at hydrogen's low octane rating of 50"

This is what I am worried about. I am worried that the salt that is involved in the combustion of hydrogen would some how find its way in to the combustion chamber and seeing the the pistons in the LT1 are aluminum it may cause corrosion. I dont know if that is a valid concern , seeing that no salt may fund its way in to there and if it did it might be such a negligible amount it wouldn't matter.
