Propane Flamethrower Kits

I'm sure someone's already posted on this topic, but does anyone know where to order or how to build a propane flamethrower kit? They used them in 2 Fast 2 Furious to make the blue flames, but I can't find on the internet anywhere to order or how to build them.

Its his car, so where is it our place to make a comment? If you want to make a comment atleast supply him with some useful info along with it; That reply just wastes space....Hes only got 5 posts, so cut him a small break.
Now, if you've done as much searching as you say then surely you can find the search box for this forum and type in a few things to find what your looking for, because it has been talked about before.
Welcome to the board, and I hope you find what your looking for here!

Re: Propane Flamethrower Kits

Mine makes big ass flames all by itself. I have some vid of it spraying out a nice 4 foot long bright red flame then it sucks in and a blue pop. Very intimidating to say the least.

At night it lights up my mirrors.

I would not be too comfortable pumping propane into my exhaust system in order to make a cool flame. It sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Re: Propane Flamethrower Kits

It is common practice among hot rodders and low riders, so look at magazines and websites that cater to them. Ususally it is pretty simple, and can be done by you with a little time.
just get a small bottle, and run a line to your exhaust, AFTER your mufflers preferably, becauset he flame will hurt them. Some people use a spark plug to ignite the gas, which seems to work well, others use another mothod involving an actual flame, but I don't know how that works. try GOOGLE.

Do a search for this on these forums. I've provided someone with info and pics on more than on occasion. I would do the same now, except I don't remember the site that sells the kit anymore

well from what i know it does hurt it but not all that bad... and the way its done is an extra spark plug is put in the end of the tail pipe and(im not sure how) but the power from the plugs in the cylinders is turned off and sent to the plug in the tail pipe and the gas just runs through with out combustion and u get a flaim comin out of the pipe... now that is the "ghetto" way to do it, if u do it like that then the flames will be just the ones seen in 2f2f but if u get the kit for it the flames can get HUGE well thats my later
