Default hydrogen zenoah

in the near future I may try my hand at modifying a g260 to run on hydrogen. has anyone tried this? I have a way to make my own hydrogen, just need to look into what mods need to be done to make it work. in theory it shoud work. I am very adept with physics and chemistry so I think it will be a fun challenge.

Might be a little hard to mix the oil with hyrogen?

I am sure there is a way to mist it or atomize it. Failing that - inject it.

One place that might yeild some answers on small motor conversion might be some of the alternate energy races with light weight vehicles and a single driver. Plenty of universities and companies competing (though they may or may not be too willing to share too many secrets)

all i can say is careful. hydrogen burns at a ratio of 4% H2 in oxygen, and auto ignites at 560 deg, mind you with a flame burning only visible in the ultra-violet spectrum. on the other hand, it is the most abundant element in the universe..... all i know is its some heavy stuff.
