Think I've posted about this before, but posting again.
I'm sick of the inconsistency I experience with pump gas in my bracket car, so I want to dive into the world of methanol. I've asked lots of questions of the local guys who run it, and get a wide variety of answers. I feel like I can swap on an alcohol carb and compatible regular then go racing. Correct me after viewing my setup:
~11.25:1 408 with ported Eddys, MP .557 cam (until next year with rebuild), -08 feed line to the carb from a Holley black with -06 return, Mancini 1/2" stainless pickup in the tank, runs 7.60s and 12.0 at a mile high altitude @ ~3400 lbs on 91 out of the pump.
A couple guys tell me I NEED -10 line and a bigger pump. Another guy says it'll work fine how it is with a new carb. I realize bigger line would be nice, but is it really needed for a 500-550 horse (sea level) car?
