most of the pumps that are methnol compatable are made for domestic automobiles. But alot of them are universal style in-line pumps. mallory edelbrock and bg are three name that i know. yes you would have to get a larger cc injector wich one i don't know. also try this question on the drag racing forum i think you will get a better answer on there.

The rule is usually that you need twice as much alcohol as you do gasoline. so if you have 370s then you would start with atleast 740s.And your going to have to get a bigger fuel supply and return.
What you can do is use your stock fuel line for the return and then run another fuel line for your supply .Out of 1/2". And it has to be hard line not soft.Also you will need a pump that that moves double the GPH as the one you have now.

methanol is alot harder to manage and run, if your not experienced with it especially for a race setup i wuld recommend going to a shop or using sunoco 94

Not really,It has a huge tuning window.It just doesn't have a plug reading.It could be a fat pig and still look lean.You have to go by A/F ratio and or EGTs.Another good thing about Alcohol is all the things you can hide in it .LOL
But you do have to drain it and run gas through it with in a couple days.Also after you run the car and your done with it ,Run it on gas for a few seconds. Because the Alcohol will rust the cylinders.

hey man were in manila r u from??? i say use 1000cc injectors or bigger and get a high flow fuel pump that would be compatble for methanol.... and make sure you have a programable ecu and a good ignition..... these are some things to start with... also you have to buy fuelfilters and lines that would match methanol.and injector aurings that would also match methanol also what compression are you running??????
