Is there any way you could add oxygen into and through the carbs to aid combustion, possibly an enrichner circuit with it or whatever. Doesn't nitrous produce oxygen in the chamber? Maybe a small bottle on board. Could it work? Nitrous set up are SPENNNNNDEEE! So who's got what it takes to KNOW that it is ludicris to even THINK it could work.

I see potential problems with trying to introduce pressurized Oxygen to combustion chambers, like how hot would the cylinders get,without melting the pistons and valves? And warping the head/block.
Consider what happens when a cutting torch used to slice holes in steel is operated. The torch is ignited, and then the flame is adjusted by balancing the amount of Oxygen and Acetylene. A lever is used to add additional Oxygen to increase the cutting ability when squeezed.
This jet of Oxygen is what melts the holes or burns through the parts to be cut.
If the engine ran using your additional Oxygen, I see it quickly seizing up even if were water cooled due to the tremendous heat being generated.
Just my opinion.......

WORD...
Propylene Oxide
Propylene oxide was once used as a racing fuel, but that usage is now prohibited under the US NHRA rules for safety reasons. It is also used in thermobaric weapons, and microbial fumigation.
