Re: Dry ice?
From what I've seen it doesn't seem to "boil" and churn gas as much as it does water. Foam in the cell may keep it above the fuel if you don't force it into the mesh. Anyone ever test to see how much, if at all, it actually cools the intake charge? A carb atop a cast iron intake must be like a blast furnace compared to the fuel temp. Might it just be a distraction? Like having Erica endlessly checking your tire pressure?
I know it does keep your frozen food frozen in a good cooler!! |

Re: Dry ice?
I doubt cooling the fuel would make much difference. Now cooling the intake air would. I don’t have any problems with fuel volume. But denser intake air would be a game changer. No one seems to run a cool can any more.

Re: Dry ice?
I think that big wheelies and harder launches just phased out the cool cans.
