Okay reading through some mods performed by G&D on there ls1 range and it appears they have made a fuel ice box ????
They way it works as i have read is that it real cools the fuel down and as a result of how effective it is it actually iced up the fuel rails on the LS1 they were working on ???? :king: So now my question is why havnt any of the g&D modified au boys tried this on the I6 ??? Cold air induction & cold fuel = more power |

Looked into it, at the moment its not the best bang for the buck by a long shot. The performance gain is minimal for the effort required.

I couldn't see a performance benefit. When fuel is atomised by an injector, because of the massive surface area (mist) the fuel becomes very cold no matter what the ambient temp is. Also fuel atomises better at a higher temp (warm obviously, not hot).
Isn't this why there are cold air kit not cold fuel? The cooling of the air benefits the combustion process far more than the fuel. |
