Default Methanol questions :-)

Has anyone out there used water/methanol injection on naturally aspirated LS motors?
Any info would be greatly appreciated. I am new to methanol

Yeah sure, pretty simple. Spray a ton of water/meth. Tune. Reduce water/meth until knock occurs. Raise water/meth back up.

The only power you'll get is by running ideal timing advance.
