Ernest, that your analysis is impressive. I've just reread it again.   I'm committed to trying with the cold side injectors  but if it does not work,  I will understand why.  The upside is that if they don't work we can lay the   idea to rest,  accept hot side fuel as the only way  and work on making it safe through proper shielding.   This is one of the "little" things us p porters have to work out.    Thanks,  Jerry

Please don't get me wrong.  I think the attempt is a very worthwhile
effort, and you're more likely to succeed if you know what's going on
and why other people failed.  If you do find that you're having problems
with it, I would suggest:

1) insure the ports are directed straight down the intake.  If at all
possible you'd like the mixture to be as far down the intake as possible
before it starts settling out of mixture.

2) install some sort of turbulator/screen to improve mixing of anything
that does fall out

3) ?heat the mixture to insure it stays mixed?

4) (Number 4 is left as an exercise for the reader)
