There are numerous hydrocarbons in gasoline. Toluene makes up as much as 35% and boils at 230º. Benzene, up to 5% by volume, boils at 176º. MTBE, up to 18% by volume (or 10% in some states), boils at 131º. The MTBE replacement, ETBE, boils at 160º. Everyone's favorite, ethanol, boils at 173º. Tertiary-amyl methyl ether, up to 17%, boils at 186º. n-Hexane boils at 156º. (All temperatures listed are in Fahrenheit.) The MSDS on gasoline I found shows a boiling range of 85 - 437º.
HOW HOT are you going to get? Are you going to control the available heat?

With a homemade system? Yes! I wouldn't want to be in the car. Yes, the x-prize team Fuel Vapor Technologies seems to have a working system. But, hey, feel free to try it on your own. Darwin has a way of demonstrating what works and what doesn't.
