Question Quick Meth Question

I just have a quick meth question. I am running the stage 2 snow meth kit on my 06 6.0 with a radix and a 2.8 pulley. As of now I am just running washer fluid, I was wondering If I could go get a bottle of heet from wal mart and put some of that in there to bump up the % of meth. If so how much of the bottle would I put it for a 50/50 mix or a 60/40 mix? Just cruising around town and on the highway its taking in 110-120 degree air, and on a 1/4 mile run it gets all the way up to 160 if not a little more. I do realize that its hot down here in south texas, but this radix is just running to hot.
Thanks for the help,
Sam

I think "Heet" is near 100% methanol. You'll have to do your math to figure the mix. Don't know what size tanks you have.

I ran heet in mine and i think it did help alittle, I mainly use mine for octane to reduce det. I just got a sweet hook up from a guy done the street who races sprint cars. I just bought 5 gal of strait meth from him for 20 bucks! Runs waaaay better with strait meth.

FYI from what I have found on the net, almost all -20* windshield washer fluid is about 30% +- 2-3% meth. Heat is 99% meth. So you can figure from there. Oh and the stock WWF tank hold 5 quarts and the light comes on when there is about a pint left.
