nitrous and alcohol????

I'm just curious if anyone has or is successfully running a carbuerated alcohol bike and a wet nitrous kit together? We are thinking about switching to alcohol but have no idea about adding nitrous to the mix

Dave, its not the lecrtrons i am concerned about, we have that covered, its the fact of adding nitrous to the alcohol, is it successful? what fuel pressure do you use? fuel line size and so on

I knew a guy named Lyn Roberts . . .

I've heard of guys spraying gas/nos to an Alky motor.  Years ago, I knew a car guy down in Pensacola Florida that ran an alky motor with MFI and sprayed it with Nos.  That thing use to Bark!  It  was a Big Block in a Z-Car.  It was called Fanta Z.

I've never did it on a bike but have done it in an Import car. The engine ran with injected alcohol and we sprayed gas with the nitrous. It made tons of power and was very safe. If you don't use gas the alcohol with alcohol and nitrous is said to be to cold or at least that's what Elmer always said about it. I also heard of a few people that ran gas through their carbs with alcohol in their nitrous system. I think Jim Argo and Brock tried it that way.

We run it on our atv's that we race on the asphalt, Using a nos round  pump we can be safe with a 10 spread (examp. 20/nos-30/fuel) on the jet, as needed tighten up the spread. Maybee that will help you some.  Poppa JD

is there any solid proven reason not to run a purely alcohol motor and inject the nitrous into it instead of adding another mix of c16 and nitrous to an alcohol motor?

experimenting and spending $$$$$$ to do it isn't what I'm worried about, I don't want to be the first guy to come back with a list of reasons NOT to do it, like loss of HP

Hahn can you allerbate on that a bit more?
