Custom Water/Methanol Injection System

Not to change the subject(but I am) Have you seen a difference in that hood mounted electric fan? I thought about doing something similar with my fender vents.............. Nice work by the way that $h!t is clean.

When I added the electric fan in the hood and machined the centers of the factory hood ornaments, I saw about a 5 degree drop in temp. When I added the vents in the hood, one is actually a fresh air inlet for the ProCharger and both let hot air out from under the hood extremely well, I saw an additional 5-7 degrees of temp drop. On a cool day, say 70-75 degrees (that's cool here in Florida) the car runs at about 175 degrees all day. When we get hotter days in the 90-95 degree range, the car runs at 190-195. Even when I drive the car hard, it rarely gets over 200. If it ever does, it means I have been severely running it hard with constant amounts of boost, but it immediately come right back down to operating temperature when I am done pounding on it.



It took a long time to get the cooling on the car right. The 2 major items that made an unbelievable difference were the Ron Davis cross flow radiator, with built in shroud and 2 - 2300cfm Spal Fans and a Meizere 55GPM electric water pump. I would never build another car without using these 2 items for cooling.

5-7 degrees temp drop is no joke. That is the first time I have seen a fan mounted like that. I was thinking about utilizing the fender vents on my car to evacuate the engine heat. I found a couple of small 6" fans used to run off solar power for small boat hulls, so its still DC 12v power.

LOL.......thats ok, at least you got a response. I asked him what his results were on the dyno 2nd time around with the bigger nozzle, and got no reply.

Sorry, I did not see your question. I got a bit more rich condition but we tweaked it out in the VE table. The car is running great now. We picked up about 8HP with the injector upgrade.
