now the only thing about using the gas grill tank is its not legal. the reason is because its not D.O.T. aproved

 

That too, but i would be less concerned about the tank blowing up than i would the wrong type of hose!

If you use a BBQ tank i would try to keep that sucker hidden for sure, the smokies probably wont like to see that...

 

ok, correct if i am wrong here, cause its possible i am. but im pretty sure that the tanks you see on campers and RVs are grill tanks and as long as they are properly secured and regulated they are fine... again, i could be very wrong but i know around here at least thats what people are driving around with on their campers

 

they have them around hear but that is not on a motorized vehicle. any type of fuel for motorized vehicle must be stored in a D.O.T. approved tank. you can transport a bbq tank in your truck just as long as its not hooked up. for my tank im useing a 8 gallon forklift D.O.T. approved tank

 

Im sure their may be ways to get away with it depending on the local laws, but 99.9999% of the time if they find a BBQ tank or any other non DOT approved tank hooked up to your truck you will get a ticket.

Their is a reason you pay so much for a 'proper' tank, that little DOT stamp/sticker is worth alot!

 

yep thats a true statement, for my water/meth setup i bought a polyurathane 7 gallon storage tank and they said that would be fine but water/meth is not flamable

 

water meth will add timing, so will a lot of programmers and so will propane. Be careful. I would like to put it in my intake horn. I worry about how much psi would be needed to compete with turbo boost.

Ideally I would like to get mine set up to turn on at about 5psi and off about 12psi so I don't have too much timing + high boost, thereby reducing pressure and saving the headgasket. I could then have water injection come on starting at about 10 psi and increasing to 25-30psi.

I got all the parts, just trying to find out how to put it all together as i have a BHAF and would like to have an enclosed filter box to tap for propane line so that i don't have anything exposed/unfiltered.

 

i did the propain on my truck. all i have to say what a waist of time and money ofcoarse it throws you back in your seat when you hit the go button but it aint worth it unless your racing

but i cant say enough about the water/meth though thats the best upgrade yet

 

what if you were to turn down your flow and run it more for mileage than performance? i turned mine down to like 2psi when i started doing alot of outa state jobs and i get roughly 75-100 miles more a tank. so like 2 1/2 - 3mpg better, not bad when the whole thing costs $150 and another $9 to refill the tank...

 

Well, i was watching 4 wheel off road adventures and they had a thing on the diesel power top truck challenge. They showed the mpg test and there was a single cab duramax with propane and it got i think 43 mpg, i know it was over 40. The rest of the trucks were in the high teens or low 20s. I had no idea you could actually get the mileage that high, but they do a pretty good test of it
