Hot airs with alky... I need help

[Waco84GN]

I have an old SMC kit with a alky hose about a little over a foot long. Made for 86/87 cars.

I asked julio what the hose is made from and got the answer, but i told him where i was going to inject it and he said I would need a solenoid.

"The hose is teflon lined stainless steel braided. Fittings are brass."

I was planning on injecting it at the elbow going into the intake from my spearco kit.

I understand that it is under vaccum and will suck the reservoir dry.

My questions are...
1. Where is the best place to spray. I am using the port on the front of the intake for boost gauge.

2. Where did you get longer hose?

3. Did you use a solenoid and if so what type? A NOS style solenoid what he is talking about?



Thanks for your help.

Jerry, I got my line fron julio. I also run a selonoid which I got from him as well. As far as where to inject well that's up to you. I have my ideas and reasons why but other have there's. Since your running a spearco intercooler setup you have a lot of pipe area to chose from.

You want to give the meth the longest path possible to evaporate and mix with the air charge.
You can choose a shorter path with the shortest being the "Intake runners" There are trade-offs for both and it all depends on your set-up.

Do a search in the alky section on this. The first link will not apply to your set-up. :tongue:
There was a recent thread on this subject.
In the end, part of it comes down to philosophies based on different goals. :wink:

Edit #1;
Added some links. Of course, the first link will not apply to your set-up.
