Message :What about combustion temps? Are they typically higher or lower than petrol gas?

definetely higher by about 15-20 degrees, but with a vented bonnet and undertray that wont be a huge problem.
i know that gas rating here is 110 octane and people have increased the compression ratio higher than what they could with petrol in some V8 engines.
ill do some more google searching. if anyones a mechanic or mechanical engineer hit us up with your thoughts!
