cooling a 6-71
I run my 392 hemi on propane.
Now I am using propane in a gasieus form.
I will use a 6-71 @ 11 % overdrive.
I have heard that I need to cool the blower with fuel.
I gasieus propane good enough to cool the blower of do I need liqued propane ( LPI)
Is there a other way to cool the blower.

Lets aks it a diverend way.
Do I need fuel to cool the supercharger.
Or can I use the 6-71 ( No Teflon )
as a blow trough ( the fuel injectors under the SC ).
Thanks

call " blower drive service" in california they know all there is to know about blowers .

Check out any GMC 2-stroke diesel, they just pump air and don't need any cooling.
-
there is a water injector system that some says helps, never used it myself.

i have seen 4-71 jimmy and 6-71 jimmys run for days and days without any problems on the farm and like pope says is true all they pump is air before it gets to the engine and diesil injectors.
you say running on propane what kind of injector syst are you using??

I will be using the Megasquirt ECU.
Am not sure now if I will use liqued propane injection or gasious propane injection.
With liqued propane injection I need less parts and the engine compartment will look cleaner, and the LPI system will cool the heated air verry nicely.
The problem is the cost of the LPI injectors This system is so new that it's hard to find the parts at the junkjard.
