Default Ntirous and Propane anyone???

Well, its been a long while since I heard any mention about it so, thought I would see if anyone ever hooked up one of the ProPain Injection kits, or similar.

Thanks.

I am deffinetly going to be playing with it a little. This winter I would like to try and assemble everything needed for it. I like the ideal of high oct#'s and non liquid flow through an intake with a single nozzle. High HP #'s without the cost of a DP kit. Lot of tossing the pros/cons around. Won't be able to test it out till spring though. Chicagoland winters aren't the mildest and don't feel like changing a good thing rite now in the middle of summer.

Yeah...several local Vipers running it here in FL too with excellent results. There are alot of pro's and very few con's when I look at it. I already have everything hooked up as far as the kit goes. I just need a small propane bottle and some time to fugure out correct jetting. Thats after my car is reassembled of course..lol. Another month......

I know ProPain (sp?) does some kits, but of course I am like many others I want a nice clean setup.
Question if you know, using Propane and Nitrous is it safe to safe I wouldnt need to worry about puddling of Liquid on the intake floor? And shouldnt the distribution be pretty even?
Need more research on this, only 9 months left in Aghanistan and back to the NBMZ28 I go! Yeah.

One big con is your tech inspector will not allow a pressurized fuel system aka the propane bottle.Other than that it is a great way to go to get good octane in a stand alone fuel system that is o2 sensor friendly.
