In the early '70's Jack Lufkin's car, (sports racing = gas streamliner) flew when the chute opened. The mounting point was too low and lifted the rear tires off the ground. When they came down and h

One tool that gets the oil out of Al is a dishwasher with hot water. It may require special planning and timing to keep the Kitchen Manager from going ballistic. Bryan

Interesting question. For most automotive stock based N/A engines running gas, I don't think it makes much difference. Dave D. says high fuel pressure will help which makes a lot of sense. At extreme
