What brand injectors are you guys running with Methanol? Anything special? Just wondering if a regular RC will hold up to it or if theres something better on the market made to work specifically with alky.

 

Back in the day, Bosch Motorsports made injectors with all stainless internals, about 10 years ago they went for @ $250/ea. and the flow rates were nothing special.

Mike Moran has been "coming out" with his new injectors for quite some time. You are supposed to be able to get them anywhere between 150 and 500 lb/hr. I have not physically had my hands on one yet - but you can supposedly buy them.
I'm not affiliated with, nor am I familiar with this company at all, but I found this link on them:

I've used Bosch 160 lb./hr, and RC 1600's both work fine.

 

Thanks guys I will probably go with the RC's, I have heard of the stainless internaled injectors tho so thats what I was wondering.

Are you guys flushing them out with pump gas after a day of racing?

 

Yes you can pretty much use any injector.

However get them flowed and checked out at least once a year.

Flush the system out with Gas after your race weekend. We would usually run alcohol from Friday night to Sunday and on Sunday before loading it up run gas through our entire system.

 

Yeah, we usually do it the day after the race. Cheap insurace.

I agree, aslo with the fuel change we do a oil change the same same time.

 

We do an oil change after every 3 passes,but boil it after every pass to burn the methanol out of it.

What do you mean by that?

 

Methanol blows by the rings every pass, and contaminates the oil. We have an oil heater in our dry sump tank. We heat the oil in betwwen rounds and it boils out the methanol. The oil looks pretty much brand new after. But it still gets broken down, so we change it after 3 pases.

 

man you guys have some cars that need some serious maintenance. I could never afford all that stuff. I commend you guys. haha.

Mike's been backordered since about April

Try Mick's performance in Missouri, they've either got them on the shelf or can have a set ready in 2-3 weeks

I'm supposed to have a 150 from him to test next week. It'd be great if I could offer 150 - 600 lb/hr adjustable injectors. We had a CNG injector from something that flowed like 1000 lb/hr @ 45 psi, but that's obviously not practical for our market. Not yet anyway.......

 

 

^^what are the details of those? who makes them?
