WHY SHOULD I SWITCH TO ALCOHOL (METHANOL) FROM GASOLINE? Alcohol is the fuel of choice for most bracket and super class racers. I will cover a few of the most common reasons to use methanol rather than gasoline.First, alchohol burns slower than gasoline and produces more torque and consistancy.Another benefit of methanol is that the engine will run cooler allowing you return to racing quicker during round robin racing. Alcohol is less flammable than gasoline and safer to handle and is also significantly cheaper at the time of purchase. Most importantly, alcohol is better suited fuel for bracket racing due to its high oxygen content. Simply put, this makes it less prone in reacting to atmospheric changes than gasoline throughout a long race day making your car a more consistent performer. And we all know that consistancy is the name of the game!!
WHAT INJECTION SYSTEM IS BEST FOR MY APPLICATION? There are many types of mechanical injection systems on the market today and all work based upon the same principle. They allow air into the engine based upon the throttle body sizing and at the same time the mechanical pump speed dictates the amount of fuel sent to the barrel valve. The barrel valve, working in relation to the throttle body blade position and main pill size, dictates the amount and pressure of fuel sent to the intake injector bodies. It is VERY important that experienced technical personnel help guide you in choosing the correct size throttle body, pump and nozzle jets for your application now and in the future. It is a good idea to have some basic information ready regarding your combination such as engine size, compression ratio, cylinder head and camshaft specs, RPM range, tranmission type and weight of the vehicle. RONS Flying Toilet and Terminator Kits are available in various sizes and can be outfitted with the correct sized throttle body to work on virtually any combination. If you are considering purchasing a used injection system it is also a good idea to consult with some type of technical support to prevent costly system modifications down the road.
