Default Can our injectors (delphi, bosch, etc.) handle meth/ethanol?

I'm considering going with alcohol injection on my truck and after doing some research think I might be able to adapt an old auxillary fuel injector controller that I already have (superfueler http://www.carrollsupercharging.com/SUPERFUELER_1.html) to control the meth/alky injection. All I would need to add would be a tank, pump, regulator and some fuel line. I'm just kinda thinking out loud right now, it may be cheaper just to buy a kit, but I figured if I already had something to use as a controller...

So the question is, will regular (deliphi, bosch, etc) injectors handle meth/ethanol okay?

Cool

I don't think those injectors can handle straight methanol/alcohol but don't know for sure. A meth nozzle should be no more than $10 plus a fitting to attach it to your intake tube. The control for the pump is boost referenced ( or MAF) and turns the flow to the nozzle on and off and regulates the speed of the pump so no other control is required to run the system. Meth nozzles are fixed oriface and do not vary the flow. Pump pressure is used to vary the flow of meth but a progressive control is required for a tunable system.

I wouldn't think it would be a problem, but I'm sure either way that you could find a couple flex fuel injectors to use for it. They are just fine with alcahol.

That's a good idea on the flex fuel injectors...anyone know what the differences between regular and flex fuel injectors are?
