Another great reason to install water injection. It moderates combustion
temps and reduces NOx.

Bill Hershowitz installed a cat on his '69 Monza Coupe. I'm not really
sure why or what if any advantage there is. Our air cooled engines have very
high combustion chamber temperatures which is why the NOX (oxides of
nitrogen) are so high. I believe that is the reason VW quit trying to bring
their
air cooled cars to the US.
