[Diy_efi] Liquid Phase Propane Injectors

[William Shurvinton]

I need to send you a picture. There is over 2 feet between the oil cooler
and the engine block. I have a 'ducted nosecone' on order so this space is
not in the hot air flow from the radiator. there is also room to put heat
insulation in if needed. Lotus sevens and their derivatives are a little
different from modern stuff. The driver sits almost on the rear axle and 60%
of the car is engine bay.

Having said all that I should have added a smiley to point out I wasn't over
seriously considering it, at least not without instrumenting a lot of
stuff:-). The point i was making was that, research pending, it may be
beneficial to have a method of introducing some low grade heat into the tank
to try and stabilise pressure. Research may also prove that, in the limited
temperature range we deal with here in UK (-5 to 30C) and at the rate of
consumption of the engine this is a secondary or tertiary effect. I get paid
to approach problems from different angles. Sometimes I can get a little too
tangential.

BTW what use is a scottish sword under my seat :-)
