Cryogenics?
Just curious if anyone has used this system on their LT1: http://www.designengineering.com/cry...ted_items.html
If so, is there any proven track results with this? Just thought it was interesting!
Thanks,
Brad J.

I am sure it has some merit to it. Just yesterday I visited the Speedshop Autoparts and I saw for sale their "cool can" I dont know if you ever heard of it... its a stainless steel can with a coiled metalic fuel line it.. The way it works is that you dump a about one or two pounds of ice inside the can and close it back up
the fuel gets cooled as it passes inside the Can. I read somewhere that cold fuel atomized better and you get extra horses from it.
I remember now it was from al old book about horspower, sold by pepboys ... they mentioned Nitro and other things to make horsepower, even water injection to avoid detonation with high compression engines and turbocharged engines.
