Outside of the Intake runners, where the air passes into the cylinder heads. Different part of the manifold than where water passes through.

i brought this subject up to my dad and if you do have a large pump like we use a magnafuel 500 that regens alot of fuel would it be effective to put the cool can in the line returning fuel to the cell from the pump and chill the fuel in the cell say if you had a 3 to 5 gallon cell?? also we run on ethanol which uses more 30% more volume would that increase the effects of running a cool can or do you think it would work at all?

Where are you thinking of putting the cool can?

in the bypass line running back to the cell from the pump. so it would be dumping cooled fuel back in the cell.

I meant where would you physically mount the cool can?

I really don’t seem to understand unless you were running stock and have a heads up why bother at all????
A lot of hassle for so little gain. and you would have to continue to keep all the variables as close as possible to be consistent not really worth the effort
