Nitrous & Methnol

If I wanted to use methanol what jetting would I use?
What is the "octaine" rating of Methanol?
What would I have to do different from sparying with gasoline, that I might not see coming?
I could get a fuel pump and tank no problem.
Extra safty stuff would be easy to install too, fuel pressuer safty and fuel purge.
I think the octaine was equal to about 118, if I rember right.
Guys that run alcohol carbs I here they jet about twice the size compaired to gas.
Would I do that with the nitrous fuel jets, 2X the size?
I want to run methanol because it is cheap compaired to race gas all the time.
I could up the comperssion and still run pump gas when sparying.
Stupid ricers will here nitrous and methanol and think its nitro methane.
It would help me have a secert system, with hiden purge and other stuff below.
Alcohol wouldn't make black smoke that easly, so they wouldn't be tiped off that there being spared at least the first or second time.
This would all be for the 150hp to 175hp 3 stage nitrous for the Z28.
And maybe use methanol for the 50hp or so shot I want to put on the V6 after the turbos go on.
I realy want propane and nitrous for the V6 for the Cooling + Cooling effect of sparying gas and gas. I'll have to wait and see on the propane and nitrous.
I want to run pump gas in the engine and alcohol in the nitrous system.

Not worth it. just use c16.

i have yet to see a successful nitrous/alky combo. not saying it cant be done,but even the pro cars that run alky,wind up with a race gas fuel system dedicated for the nitrous.

There out there it's just all most no one want's to tell all.
Methanol has a lot of things gasoline doesn't.

there are a few out there yes.
But most guys got tired of melting pistons and windowing blocks trying to tune the combo.

IMO just stick with the dedicated fuel system for the juice and run good race gas.
