    you have always been a genius and pioneer in the fuel injection fuel tech area I watch all of your videos because they are very informative and educational. I have no clue why anybody would run mechanical on the blowers like they do now with today’s technology. Honestly, I’m very old-school in many ways, but you have to go with what works many years a four-cylinder would make 80 to 90 hp now they could make 400+ the same a small block Chevy a.k.a. LS and LT packages of today so you have to go with the times and technology. It’s honestly that simple.

    Thanks for explaining the differences and advantages of EFI. One point: I believe that the irregular bhp curve for an actual hemi-engine should be addressed before programing the an air/fuel map... no mater if it's a mechanical or EFI system or carburetor. After all, the horsepower curve is nothing more than a derivation of the engine's torque at incremental rpm points. Fix the inexplicable dip in bhp BEFORE deciding how to accommodate for the deficiency through programing.

    @neversettle7666 Před 9 měsíci +1

    I am always surprised big budget, big HP cars like this are running port injector rails in series. It's common place that high performance 4cylinders run in parallel, 6 cylinders running twin entry with the return in the middle of the rail to reduce fuel pressure and fuel flow drop between injectors. I believe it also assists with injector pulsation / fluid cavitation along the rails.

    Do you have anything for a nitro motor. An A/fuel (naturally aspirated) hemi for example. The fuel flow on a nitro engine is around double that of the blown alcohol counterpart on a modern TAD. They use three injectors per cylinder on a mechanical injection combination. Is there electronic injectors capable of that kind of flow?

      Rules and injector size. Nitromethane requires around 4 times more fuel mass to generate same power as alcohol. And if you double or triple the power we are talking at 8 to 12 times more mass on a Top Fuel engine than a Pro Mod. Theres no injector large enough to supply that demand today.

      @luisdeleon2930 Před 10 měsíci +5

      You are correct about atomization. But theres minimal advantage to atomization prior to the blower. The majority of its advantage takes place after the blower, before it hits the intake valve and goes into the chamber. Before the blower is more useful to have the correct amount than the state of the amount of fuel.
