The 87GN motor that is in the car has a snow performance stage 2 kit on it. The guy said he ran 50/50 water/methanol, but I am hearing that I should probably be only running straight methanol? It runs at 20psi on 93 pump gas, and the injection comes on at 10psi. Any insight on this would be appreciated.

Thanks.
 
The issue with straight alcohol is the compatability of the lines, fittings, pump internals, etc. Thats one dynamic.

While the pump I use are similar, I dont know specifics as to the internals of the model of your pump and its compatability to straight alcohol/methanol. All Shurflo pumps are not created equal. Some models have materials inside them that will fail with using alcohol.

And.. I would not run straight methanol through plastic hoses with pushon fittings at high pressures. That is just me.

Will your system have any issue running on straight methanol, dont know.

If your not having issues, leave it alone. If the system was geared to run "mix" 50/50.. then run 50/50. Changing the concentration plays with the way it was designed to work.
