Just wondering, all costs aside, whats better in terms of longetivity of the alky kit and most especially SPEED?? Denatured alcohol or methanol?
Thanks,
Derek

Derek, this thread is for help locating sources, and trying to keep it non technical.

To answer your question,

Depends on pump used. And most get a little better result out of using methanol. The up-side is looking at prices, its pretty inexpensive..once located. The down side is locating it. If you want, make a new thread with your question, or.. you can also search, this subject has been gone through a bit.

If you get a system that can run both liquids.. then you can play with both and make your own judgement. After all.. you cant have a balanced opinion till you try. Same arguement applies to using water mixed with alcohol.

Seems very expensive. Should be half that. For that much per gallon, denatured is very competetive price wise. I'm cheap. I decided to cut my methanol with windshield washer fluid by a third. Don't know how much methanol is in the washer fluid, but there is supposed to be some. Costs under a dollar a gallon at walmart. I saw no performance loss. Ran my best, 12.31 with this mix at 70*.
