Do you turbo alcohol guys use any lube in the mix? I have heard stories of corroded fuel rails and such.

I usually use a bottle of the lube when i get the 55 gal drum. I figure its cheap insurance. Never have seen a problem. If the car is going to sit for 2+ weeks and not get started I usually swap it to my gas tune up and let it run a bit on 87 octane just to be safe.

On our big blower car after the weekend is over we spray wd40 into the blower hat and cycle the motor with the ignition off and spray a little into the fuel inlet. We did have a problem once when we didn't drain the system after the weekend and went to fire it the next weekend and a few of our 0-rings and dried up and we have to replace them in a HURRY before a race

Hey Dennis, No biggie bro. I appreciate you sending the quote over. I went ahead and had the chassis guy get them and we are going to install them next week.
