Propane Injector sizing

Post by BigBlockFord545 »

Hi i'm building a 545 cube 385 series big block Ford. The engine uses a positive displacement supercharger and am hoping for around 800 - 1000fwhp. I would like to run the engine on propane (rego reasons) I understand that the bosch 160lb injectors are compatable with gaseous propane. Does anyone know the flow rates for these injectors running propane an what gas temp and pressure ?

What type/brand of vapouriser would be able to keep up?

thanks

Wow, this is a big engine.. Im working on a lpg injection conversion to for a 351 Cleveland. What im using is a system from BIGAS. This is a verry small vapouriser en uses special injectorsolenoids of 4 Ohm. These solenoids are connected via a rubber tube to the actual injectors with are only small brass tubes with a 5 hole nosle at the end. Its verry simpel and able to give power to a 7 liter engine. If not adequad install two of those systems. Vapouriser is about 16 cm in diameter and 14 cm lengt. See http://www.bigas.it for info.
