One last propane injection question for thoes who have run it

Where did you mount the tank? Ive seen photo's of FC vert's having it mounted in the trunk which seemd fine but i dont have a vert, would mounting it inside be ok? or do i have to make a place under the car to mount it?

Oxy-acetylene would work better, wouldn't it, lol?

I thought propane could only be used with diesel engines? Isn't it like the "NOS" for diesels?

Personally, I wouldn't trust it in the passenger compartment, but the guy is still alive if that means anything....

Thats what im trying to avoid. i was looking at just mounting a small 2.5gal one horizontaly in the back of the car but i would really like to get it outside of the car

Ive seen 'industrial' tanks that are designed to mount next to a frame rail in a big truck or something of the sorts, but they are $400+, little more than i want to spend

Look's like it will be one of thoes 'cut and weld' deals


And as for the people who are asking about propane injection, i dont have my bookmark's handy, however go to www.boardreader.com and do a search for propane injection, you would be suprised as to what you find
