Haha... A plastic 1/2 gallon juice bottle rests on the dipstick tube arc and neck is zip tied to master cylinder. Hasn't melted yet. Ironically it did freeze last winter., I added some washer fluid. Going on two years now works great...
@teddorward i guess, i have leaky overflow../coolant reservoir and i hate it,, until i replaced it... i could never have a juice bottle on my 5.0/ and why when it really does not do anything... try a bigger radiator or lower thermostat
Looks like this is something like a water injection system as used on 300bhp turbocharged wrc rallycars so that you can use a higher static compression ratio with the same fuel or lower octain fuel and the same SCR, one problem with water injection is that if you inject too much water the exhaust valves and seats get brittle over time due to thermal shock, but since you are using vapors only you might get away with it, don't go too crazy with it though
It's a vapor injector drawn in by engine vacuum only, much simpler than a pressurized meth system. Basicially keeps the intake cool like a bag of ice. Adjustable with simple aquarium air regulator
where do u plug in the hose coming out of the bottle?

It is an interesting idea :)

how much power did you add?

Is this basically a homemade methenol injection kit? How are you regulating how much you're putting into the engine?
