And sence your back I take it your jetting chart is for a single or duel nozzel setup and not a DP set up right? If so anyway to work it out for a dp kit?

Yea it's for a single nozzle set-up, where you replace the gas with propane. I'll have to think about it for converting known numbers to DP (math).

I'm concerned about keeping propane stored inside the vehicle, it would be nice if someone made a tank that fits in a desirable location externaly. I know you can have made what ever you want, it would be much cheaper to order in quantity though. Robert had the right idea of finding someone to bankroll him... anyone grabbing the bull by the horns here would have ground floor opportunity. a long skinny cylinder with the valve in the side? blow off protection? Something safer than a charged propane cylinder inside the car. You take a rupture on the system and it could get hot quick inside the car. Just a concern I have. Thought about the 1# (if they last as long as the nitorus tank)under the hood but I guess engine heat would be a problem.

something else to be considered is just using a 2.5 lb nitrous bottle but have some type of adapter made that would allow the filling station to pump propane into the n20 bottle instead (and then of course finding someone that would actually pump propane into it)
that way you have what could be a little more stable container and blow off protection. plus it would look better if you had to have it in the open

well actually i never thought about going to get like say a 20 lb bottle filled, convert the fitting to AN and then syphone or pump that into a n20 bottle.
VERY good idea robert, but would you have to take the pick up tube out of the n20 bottle since a propane bottle doesn't have one?
i am sure if you walked up to a propane filling station with a nitrous bottle you would be laughed at.

How do you go about filling a bottle with propane? It doesn't need to be pushed in like nitrous, does it? Do you just simply attach it to a bigger bottle and open the valve and when the pressure equalizes, it's filled? If it's that simple, I think I may go the route of the 2 lb nitrous bottle and fill it myself from a large propane tank.
