I plan to install additional large injectors for methanol.
You can work and petrol.
I do so:
1.octane plug 95-AFR-normal petrol-14, 7 ;Spark advance 95-petrol
octane plug 98- AFR -6,4 ;Spark advancе 98-methanol
If tables are 95.98 AFR petrol will have to switc -octane plug with relay
2.if I happen to do a double EPROM for gasoline and methanol,or two computers with the same sensors.
will try this first bin

Re: tuning of methanol
100% gas.......................14.7
90% gas, 10% meth.......13.87
80% gas, 20% meth.......13.04
70% gas, 30% meth.......12.21
60% gas, 40% meth.......11.38
50% gas, 50% meth.......10.55
40% gas, 60% meth.......9.72
30% gas, 70% meth.......8.89
20% gas, 80% meth.......8.06
10% gas, 90% meth.......7.23
100% meth.....................6.4
I think and try different mixtures
You and I put a little oil that washed the cylinders when cold

Re: tuning of methanol
are you planning to mix the methanol in the tank or as its fed into the engine ?
i didn't know you were planning to run a mix, i thought you were using straight methanol.

Re: tuning of methanol
I finished. Perfect happened to mix 20% petro and methanol 80% -167 horsepower for stock 100.Compression-15.7/1
Thanks to all

Re: tuning of methanol
15.7:1 ... how are you managing that ? i didn't even think you could run that much compression with straight methanol!!

Re: tuning of methanol
The most compression I ever saw was in the USA at Cosworth Indy engine plant, They built a YBV 2.1lt 4cylinder with 21.1 compression on methanol and direct fire ignition and put out 340hp at 10,000 rpm N/A but was stuffed after 40 lap midget race, I know I pulled down the the long block assembly to find ceramic coated pistons and chambers then I had to put it all in the bin, Wish I was allowed to keep a piston and rod. This was in the 90s when Cosworth turbo v8s were winning Indy car. We did win the midget race.

Re: tuning of methanol
well my understanding is the bigger your cam is the more compression you can have as its half going out the exhaust anyways .... so for a mostly stock car you might only able to run 13:1 but for a full house race motor you could have 15:1 etc .....
but i guess things like alloy heads and such all change the equation too.
