Spercharged motor, Plate or fogger?
HI!
I presently have a roots blower on my engine, fed through a two barrel holley. At some time in the future, I'm planning to fit a nitrous system to it. I read in the SA design/cartech guide to installing and tuning blowers, that although blown motors shouldn't need nos. the liqiud boiling into it's gas state in the intake of the blower, has a chemical intercooling effect. (As well as the chemical supercharging effect. OH YEAH!!!)
The blower my set up uses, is known as has not that flash an abadetic effeciency. (Roots blowers are all a bit like that) so I'm qiute keen on capitalising on this effect.
The other thing is, space limitations prevent me from using a four barrel carb. (My engine is pretty small anyway) So a four barrell plate wont fit my blower.
Do I
A, cut down a four barrel plate and retig it so it fits my flange,
OR
B, Just run a fogger nozzle or two into my carb adaptor plate?
What are your experiences? And which system do you think will have the greater chemical intercooling effect?
Thanks,
Bart.
The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
