Hello, i recently stumbled over this nice option and would have a few questions(Read the available links before asking!!)
There is lots of info using such a system in turbo and supercharged engines.
However on natural aspirated engines, carbureted NON EFI(Like in my case) there is not much i can find in terms of benefits (Performance improvement, how much potentially ??), mostly people use it to avoid "knocking issues" and overheating problems.
The second issue is that our old small blocks do not use any electronics motor management.Only useable input for a adjustable system i can think of is vaccum and RPM
Third i would like to use this system as an ON/Off solution, only using it at WOT(If that makes sense), as driving on street i do not want to carry around a huge tank, which would be needed if system is used continuesly.
My Thinking would be:
Install that system as a one stage system(Two injection nozzles):
=>Use Vaccum as input information to activate the system when Engine drops below certain vaccum level (= WOT) and secondaries of Carb are opening.
=> Forward static ignition (Should not create knocking issues as waterinjection is active !) over present level
=> Inject into Manifold
My Engine: 383,650CFM Edelbrock,HEI Distributor,Edelbrock Air GAP RPM manifold, Probe FPS forged Pistons, 10.5:1 Static compression, 97 Octane Fuel being used as standard fuel.
Would be interested if anyone has a similar application and can report on experiences, appreciate any useful input !!
