For the love of God man! Have you gone insane? Looks very sweet <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> What kind of gas you gonna run in the second tank for the spray?

That looks like a $2000 setup man (not counting the intake). Very sweet <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

Sean, got some Qs- Did you plumb the hard lines? 2- Why Methanol and you can mix it with regular fuel from the main tank? So the injectors put in 104 octane, and the nozzles put in meth? what % increase did you add for the amt. of methanol? Like a carbed car- going from gas to methanol, you need to up the jets X amount. Ill be in town for Xmas break, can I come and take a looksy <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Louis, the Methanol helps to keep the detonation gremlins out . The rear gas tank will have 114 octane fuel in it, and the front cell will have methanol in it. The jets on the kit are much larger on the fuel side now, like a 67% increase in size over gas. Chicago Z06, the kit is basicly a normal SX2 dual stage system for use with methanol. The fuel pressure on the methanol side is only 7 to 9 PSI, while the injectors still run at 60. It's pilled at 200 on the first stage and 300 on the second. I will probably pill it up until it comes apart or stops making power. I am thinking that my headers will make it nose over before I hurt the motor. Who knows, guess we will find out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .
