B-26K with R-2800 engines could pull 2500 HP with water injection.
I've got 150 hours in bird.

Think some if the 'Jugs' had water and could pull 90 inches with the
water getting 2800 HP in late models.

It sounds reasonable that injecting H2 into your fuel stream can
improve the combustion. I assume that combusting the H2 in your
cylinders along with the regular fuel will boost temperature to give a
cleaner burn. Would the higher temperature harm your engine life at
all?

Don't know about a cleaner burn. Higher temperatures mean mire nitrogen
compounds. In fact, a pure H2 and atmosphere engine will produce the nitrogen
compounds that make up smog. To be clean, you need a pure O2 for oxidizer,
not air.

The fuels we use are hydrocarbons and there is plenty of hydrogen there
already. In a perfect burn, as in stoichiometric combustion with O2, all you
get from gasoline is water and CO2. Octane is just 8 carbons surrounded by 18
hydrogens. Adding hydrogen and decreasing gas might get a hotter fire, but we
run about as hot as we need (or can stand) now for long engine life. Hotter
might help prevent oddball bits of hydrocarbon from being unburned (handled
by catalytic converter) but increase NO2, etc.

The link didn't lead to whatever you saw, so I can't comment on the thingy.
It probably works as well as putting magnets on your fuel lines.
