I think you might
find that any reduction in IAT from fuel vaporization at the cylinder
induction port will be insignificant.
Walter,
 
Hmmmmm....  You were quite willing to point out earlier that the final induction air temperature in a carburetor  remained quite low (the FAA requirement is what, a 50F, 80F min rise from carb heat as measured after vaporization?)  even though I now know that the searing temperature of air from the heat muff raises the pre-vaporization air temp quite a bit.
 
I guess the only thing to do insert a probe in the cylinder just after injector vaporization or do a calculation (now my head is hurting) on gas  cooling effects.
 
If only my copy of Taylor, Vol 1 would get here.
