That is like saying Nitro will only make more power on a top fuel engine. :R
"ANY" engine that gets more O2 to it will produce more HP. From a 5 HP Briggs to the biggest engine in the world.
That's how Alkie, Nitro and Nitrous works! They ALL contain O2 in their makeup and it's like chemically supercharging your engine.
The good thing is the more the O2 content a fuel has the more power you get. That would be the reason Nitro wins the contest with over 50% O2.
The bad is, the more O2 a fuel has the lower the fuel mileage is. That would be the reason a top fueler takes around 12 gallons of fuel in a 1/4 mile run.
