Water/meth injection was an option on the 1962 Oldsmobile Jetfire. They called it turbo rocket fluid. The motor was turbo charged as well. Check it out on youtube.

Default Water/Meth on idi 7.3

Thanks to all who had input and knowledge.
I still have the truck and will be looking into it as soon as upgrades are made to my 5.9 cummins in the 98.5 ram 2500 sport. Just lost the lift pump. Did a fuel filter change and found my vp44 has been pulling the fuel for 1.5 weeks now. The lift pump after filter change couldn't even draw fuel to prime or bleed to the vp44.
