Re: Fuel system WAS: Re: [DMCForum] So

No my design is based on a 2.5" x 2.5" x 0.75" block of 6061 Al through
which I will drill internal passageways for the gas to run.  On top of
that
I will mount a Thermo Electric Cooler and the biggest heatsink that will
fit
into the car.  With a heatsink and fan off an old AMD k6 I had ice forming
on the Al in about 1 min.

This will take much less room than any fluid to air cooler and will be
much
more efficient.
