No problem at all. I am in the process of becoming a Sponsoring Vendor of this forum, so any time I can help, I will do my best.

Go to www.vpracingfuels.com and ask where the nearest distributor of VP fuels is, and they will tell you, you can get a 55 gal drum or more CHEAP! less impurites. I get it by the 5 gallons, and it will last for a long time. Good luck.

how much does it cost in a 5 gallon drum?
The denatured alcohol from home depot is 100% denatured alcohol. I have seen many people using this same stuff.
I have no vp racing distributors in my location, that is why I went this route with the hd denatured alcohol..

thats weird because both al and dave buschur both have commented on using denatured alcohol..
meth is more combustable than denatured alcohol, but could also cause corrosion issues..
Just check some of the Buick forums, they have been running denatured alcohol for MANY years with significant success..

I am not saying that either one of them use alky in their cars, because I do not know 100%. I have read several times that Al has said that he is using alky, but that may be different than what he is actually using right now.
The alky from home depot is expensive, but if it is your only reliable source then its better than nothing...
