If there is, I don't know of it. I really had no reason to research an alternative, as Nitromethane was easily attainable here.
Sorry....
As for life of the engine, properly adjusted to somewhere in the 225-270F temp range, engine life should actually exceed that of a nitro burning engine, as the combustion of methanol is smoother and a longer duration burn, than the comparable explosion of the nitro based fuel....

ORIGINAL: lancier

Thanks for the info. Is there any alternative to nitromethane that can give the engine more power? If i only run on a methanol/castor blend and i dont get the power i want(and risk the life of the engine)is it worth the effort?
