Ty n 10s
Re: My prototype setup
The temps above are not out of line. I start at about 10* above the outide temps and go to 140*, sometimes 145*. I can bring that down into the 120* range with alky injection. I know many GNs and a couple of SYTY guys back in the day tried non intercooler systems with not good results.
Running e85 without an intercooler would get you decent results, but you would still need caution at medium to high boost levels. A straight methenol fueled motor would work, but the setup would be very expensive and the drivability limited.
If you tried the A2A and thought the temps were a little high , why don't you just add an alky injection to that and be good to go? It is safer and and most future buyers would accept that setup. You may run a risk of hurting the value of your Ty by hurting the motor or making buyers skeptical that you may have been hard on the motor by experimenting with something that has been known to have questionable results.
FWTW...I tried the direct Nos injection into the intake to cool the air. I played around with 10 and 25 shot jets. It was difficult at best to tune the Nos and the turbo boost to have them match up at the proper time. The result was two blown head gaskets and not as much cooling than the alky kit I later put on. It wasn't long after that Nos experimental time that I broke a ring land on one of my pistons. I always wondered if it all started when I played around with the bottle.
I consider you a friend and know how much of yourself you have put into your ty. Speaking for the midwest guys, we all think your Teal TY is totally hot, supper cool, tight, dammmm nice and the sh$%! :tup: We are all glad to see it on the road with us. I would personally hate to see you ruin your motor now that you spent your time and money to get it this far.
Sincerely,
John
