Flamethrowers

Sounds pretty complicated for me, seeing how i dont weld, and i dont really want to put a hole in thw tip of my new muffler.

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.

[harwood39]

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

[Schwanger]

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.

The kit i found was for a gas one, not propane.

propane is the way to go though

[Schwanger]

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.

[harwood39]

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.

propane is the way to go.. its eaiser to control then trying to time the mixture of your exhaust...just push the button

[harwood39]

i take it you have experience with propane.

is this the geo drivin around town with like taht tip that has some curve to it, my friend who also has a metro made a flame thrower kit but couldnt get any spark but when we held a lighter at the end of tip he had some that were prolly 4 feet so we tried it usuing a friends go kart racing alcohol and the flames were shittier, but it still is tight shit seeing flames from a geo, and it was the metro that has all those stickers in the back windows and its low

I happen to know of a few guys who run it on their semis..ya know the 18wheeler ones. They use it to climb hills and for shits and giggles in the smoke stacks.
