    I was thinking about this last night. You might be able to get away with propane and move the plug farther up the pipe. But I don't know for sure, and you would get a blue flame instead of orange. You would still have some welding to do.

      That would be cool, about how much did it cost? I like the idea of a blue flame. I know you can buy kits for like $125

        I don't know for sure. If you did propane and wanted to do it right it would be more than 125. Unless you can find a cheap electric bottle valve. with gas you can get off cheap, all you need is a coil, old spark plug, plug wire, old injector, a couple relays, switch, and some wire.

              I don't know. It's pretty cool with gas because the flames are about 3 foot long and 3 foot high, you can see the tips of the flames through the back window. Plus you can leave a little burning reminder that you were there on the ground.

                but what will the gas one do to the car if its that high? I know the propane ones arent as high so the wont damage the body, and can shoot out alot farther that 3 ft.
