I would not do it on a truck with catalytic converters as the raw gas passing through them would get burnt there and possibly cause a vehicle fire instead of at the tail pipe where you would want it.

Yup they don't work if you have a Cat. I personally wouldn't put one on though as they don't seem the safest.

They don't work very well with a cat so if you put them on you will want a set that has an additional fuel supply.

not true...
got to a wall mart or such forth... (get if dual) 2 (if not dual) just 1 propane tank... the small ones there... get steel braided line... and run to exhaust... that can be your fuel source.. when installing install after your muffler(s) and use an old coil pack of some sort for your ingition... hook it all up to a switch and make sure you buy a regualtor to use for how much flame will peak out he exhaust... hit the switch and BOOM.. i have a custom shop do mine in my f150 for about 600.00 labor and parts... good luck
