I see, that was my main concern. I was almost certain the stoich mixture rates would not allow a proper and long term mixture of the two.
I have heard of the conflicting designs of top fuel vs gasoline drag engines. I am persuing my automotive technology degree at the moment. At my school, Antron Brown(driver of the matco tools top fuel dragster) was a guest speaker and brought his car. Unexplainable in words being able to talk to this guy and see his car. Learned alot of great stuff.
I have recently been reading up on the massive fuel requirements/flow needed to maintain an engine run off of nitro. The powerjet and fuel pump ideas you posted sparked this interest. I have learned that to run methanol, one needs to have their fuel flowing at about 2.5 times that of a gasoline powered engine. Therefore, i can infer from BTU output differences and fuel amounts per air charge need in each stroke that to run nitromethane, one may need 4-5 times the fuel flow of a gas engine. Am i correct in this inference(more assumption)?
