<DIV>I am currently in the process of building a 377ci. SBC designed for bracket
drag racing, and I am very interested in using a 93 oct. pump gas/15%
nitromethane mix ratio for fuel. I know that one of the benefits of using nitro
with gasoline is increased octane characteristics, including adding an oxygenate
to the fuel, but I'm rather ignorant of the many other pro's and con's of using
it. Engine management will be provided by a '7730 ecm and related harness. I
wonder if the Bosch injectors will be compatible with such a fuel, in terms of
sizing and magnetic winding tolerance to the fuel. I understand that due to the
oxygen content of nitro, </DIV>
<DIV>(49.6% by weight) that more fuel will have to be administered/ms of pulse
width than with conventional gasoline.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Does anyone have any contributable thoughts on this idea that may steer me
in the right direction, or maybe know of some publication that explains the use
of nitro as an auto fuel? Thanks in advance and looking forward to your
comments.</DIV>
