Fuel system and boost/methanol questions..

I have decided to run methanol and not intercoolers for now.. I will be eventually adding a 3 core front mount but for now since i have no money im only running methanol. Have a few questions though.. Was reading up on fuel pumps, I have a walbro 255 intank pump and i read it supports 600 hp(i dont really believe this but w/e).. would this be enough with 42# injectors and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator to not use the T rex fuel pump? I dont really like inline pumps and would much rather just use the walbro 255. Im running the 6.66 crank pulley and 2.75 blower pulley giving me about 14psi. I will be running a 75/25 mix of methanol/water that will be activated at 4psi. Anyone think ill be ok with just the walbro? Also I cant decide what nozzles to get on the methanol system.. I was thinking the 635ml nozzle, anyone have any experience with methanol/water injection setups? Im also spraying it with a 100 shot but only at the track if that matters...


Thanks
Nick

Re: Fuel system and boost/methanol questions..

The injectors are marginal, I think they may be too small. You might get by with cranking the fuel pressure way up, Using the intank and a "Boost-a-Pump" type device works well as that will flow more than the intank plus in-line.
