half gasoline half methanol carb
(OP)
just wondering if anyone has tried this or if you think it would work. if you could modify a holley 4bbl to run on methanol on the rear side only, the front would be used for staging, return road etc. this is a drag car.fuel supply would be seperate. rear side would have main metering and accer pump only. would a single plane or dual plane be better intake choice?

Either run methanol or run petrol.

A 9 second car is not really suitable for street use anyway, so what advantage do you hope to obtain from dual fuel.
Once you have to deal with the corrosion problems of methanol, what advantage is there in retaining some petrol.
Fuel costs for drag racing is insignificant in the overall scheme of things.
Methanol runs cooler, makes more power and supports higher compression or boost levels and is cheaper to buy than high octane racing petrol.
