Nothing against buying - but I like building

I will research propane injection. That seems safer to me than gasoline.

propane is the lame way

with liquid gas you can let it run for a minute and have a seperate switch for ignition and then leave a trail of fire, i seen a couple guys do it and its really great! propane just floats up in the air and burns, pretty boring.

Cool video thanks.

I can tap the pressure side of the fuel line or add a propane bottle.

My real question is how to attach to the tailpipe safely.

99.9% of the time it won't be in use

Hmmm . . . let's see. If I were to add a small gas tank and pump and then add a little dishwashing detergent to the gasoline (napalm) I think that I would have a real flamethrower. Didn't the Army teach me cool stuff?

Probably get arrested as a terrorist these days . . .

I like it. I am picking up a NOS solenoid today to plum propane. I could add a second for the soap & make the flames sticky.

I knew I could count on you guys for good ideas!
