Hello all,
I have a 1965 Ford mustang with a built 302 (Edelbrock performer rpm AL heads, hyd roller cam, full roller rockers, Holley 670 cfm carb, billet crank, B&M 144 supercharger, water pump is electric, only belt driven item is a 150 Amp alt., electric fuel pump, msd 6AL with trigger ignition, ~320 hp at crank @5500 rpm normally aspirated, ~410hp with supercharger at 4lbs boost @ 5200 rpm)
I am preparing to button it all up and start driving this car now (yes a daily driver), the motor is about 8.5:1 compression, and I plan on running 4-7 lbs of boost. I purchased an old Spearco water injection system (2 liter red bottle with 8 different nozzles), the kit had never been used and was still in the original box with warranty registration card, but no directions.
I have figured out how the pressure switch works and I can calibrate it with some low pressure gages and hand pumps I have around.
The question. If I run on 89 to 91 octane fuel (the best to be found here in Hawaii), at what boost pressure should I have the water/alky injector turn on?
I am thinking around 3-4 lbs of boost, but I am not sure and I would like some opinions.
Also, if anyone has a manual for the Spearco Inject-tronic system, would it be possible to get a scanned copy via email?
Thank you
