im not saying this is safe, but this is what i have done. You will need an extra coil to hook up to either your regular battery or get a seperate battery and weld a bung in your exhaust about 1-1 1/2 feet from the tips, to put a spark plug in. The hard part is getting the fuel, or propane in the exhaust system safely, so the flame wont go back into where the propane is comeing from. I had a system jerry-rigged to work a few times, but probably nothing you wanna do.

It's automotive related.
Unless he is asking about a general typr flame thrower like the military has

i an doing the same thing with my 5 inch stacks, i am useing a old pionts style distributor, hooked up to a 12 volt electric motor. you can run 2 coils form the one set of points. hook the + side of the coil to a swith along with the + side of the electric motor. hook the - side of the coil to the distributor, make sure the distributor is grounded. hook a plug wire up the the coil, put a plug 3 inches- 12 inches from the end of the exhaust pipe. i am popane injecting the bottom of the stacks with a fuel shut off valve from a fork lift, i got it for$20 dallars down town. hook the shut off switch to the same 12 volt switch that the electric motor is hooked to. flip the switch and FLAME ON!!! just make shure you don't start any thing on fire.
