Needing a dual methanol kit pretty quick. Don't really want to use the washer tank as having to fill more frequently. . Rather have a 3 gallon or so tank.. does anybody make a trunk mount kit or something hidden.

Got the plastic card ready. In the middle of the build so any pointers and advice is welcome as well

Thanks guys

 

Anybody have a good deal going on??

 

Call ECS....
If you want to run a remote fuel cell opposed to the washer fluid reservoir you will most likely have to source a cell on your own. Figure out the dimensions you want and check jegs or summit to see if they have Somthing close. If not, have one made out of stainless to your specs.

 

Maybe Doug will chime in and shoot me a pm.. not sure what all is needed. Want to get everything needed to keep things under control and safe. Cost and ect .

 

Whats the scoop? You do a blower and need more fuel / octane?

Is doing a cam not an option?

 

Doing few mods. And want it for safety.. fuel... cooling effect.. keep the engine clean.. it's nothing but all good. So I want to use it and get it installed while the car apart..

Key thing is really don't want to use the windshield washer bottle.. want to have a bigger container. And still have the low fluid sensor if possible.

 

Also wanted to ask.. why the difference in prices for the different meth kits.. alky.. devil.. snow.. ect.. some are 350-400 and range all way past 700 for a kit. Which alky is most expensive. . Is the name what we're buying or the quality?? How's it better then the others? Is there different levels on each kit?

 

The factory tank is like 1.5 gallons. Its really larger than most people think. And should last way longer than you think as well.

The Corvette is an open cockpit car. So you should get a fuel cell and have it vented outside the vehicle. Having methanol inside the car right behind where you sit needs consideration. Not to kill your thought process, but i'd prefer to be far away from the tank unless there was simply no other option.

So first issue is figuring out what cell to use and how much space your willing to give up behind the seat. Second issue is then figuring out where to have the pump mounted.. brackets.. etc.. Then build the lines. I don't think having a pump under high pressure right behind where i'm sitting would be a good idea. You also haven't considered filling the tank and the drama of pouring into an area behind the seats.

Since your doing this for fuel, you probably are wanting to do straight meth. To do so, your lines need to be braided and properly terminated. You also need a system with a greater output due to that increased flow needed.

Suggest you call the companies you listed and see what they can offer. Understand the words ASAP and custom kit.. are oxy's. Understand the difference between the word generic kit that fits everything and "made for" kit that is specific. This affects price..

Me.. do the factory tank.. and if the need for more where to happen, then get a cell and run the hose to the pump. The pump by the factory tank is going to be lowest point on car anyways.

A 800-900 RWHP twin nozzle setup will use maybe 1 3/4-2 ounces per second at WOT. Tank holds 180 ounces, So thats 15-20 ounces per 1/4 mile pass. Lets use 20. Thats easily 8-10 full 1/4 miles passes. More than you'll ever do unless trying to tear the transmission out. 0-60 in 3.. thats a lot of stop light dragging.

If your fear is losing the washer nobody uses.. add a small tank, run a hose to the nipple on the factory washer motor.. and whalla.. problem solved.

HTH

 

I personally would rather keep fuel out of the interior of the car but that's just me.

 

Thank you for the good points. And yes I do want to use straight meth. Is the alky kit the only kit that does this

 

I don't know that it's the only one, but that it solves what your looking to do.

I dislike saying "the only one" as its too bold a statement. Like the word impossible. The world is a big place

 

Don't you sell these kits? If so could u pm me and IL give u my email maybe get a kit

 

I don't sell my systems through the forum as i'm not a vendor here. I don't want to cross that line.

I come to the site and offer assistance any way I can.

You can purchase directly through ECS 609-752-0321

 

I'd like to throw my 2 cents worth in on this. I would strongly recommend that you go with the AlkyControl system.

First, Julio is very knowledgeable and helpful. I did my own AlkyControl system install with the dual nozzle and IAT Breakout options. Julio's kit is very complete with everything you will need and includes first rate quality components. The install is very straight forward as long as you don't mind taking a few things apart. And, if you run into problems you simply call Julio and he will walk you through the process.

 

I'm still trying figure out the cost difference.. why alky is the most expensive. . Is it just buying the name.. I have 2 friends using devils own. Kit. 400 compared to 700 with iat breakout. .

 

The only thing I can ad is that the quality of the components in the AlkyControl system are very high quality. The pump, the primary component in any one's system, is a serious piece of equipment and keep in mind that 100% methanol is very hard on the pump. I had a Snow system in my Whipple charged Camaro and the difference between the two pumps is like night and day. Additionally, when I ran into questions during the Snow system install they were not very helpful.

If I was in the process of buying another system today I would choose AlkyControl again, regardless of cost. It's a no brainer for me.
