Default Flame Thrower Kit Wanted !!!

Hey Guys,

Does anyone know of a Flame Thrower Kit made for these Trucks that can shoot Flames out of the Stacks ? Has anyone made one, or know if there is a kit ? If you know, or know how to make one, please let me know.

Thank you,
Robby

IMO, I don't think you are going to get any responces to your question of a flame throwing kit on this board. The abilitly for someone to take any information of that sort and use it for the unintended purposes, poses too much of a potential liability to the poster and to the sponsor/s of this board and forum.

I have never built one of these, but if it were me I would start by trying to install the guts from a grill lighter into the stacks. The hard part would be getting it to operate remotely.

there's no kit available to my knowledge . It's not hard to make ,but you need to know what your doing . while it may be cool a burnt down house is not . Donny only lights up in the open and I doubt he's allowed to at Indy at all .

You are so right Steve. Some one told me years ago, "If you don't know what it does, don't mess with it".

Were all ADULTS HERE!!!!!!!!! DO NOT TRY AT HOME!!!!!!
you need a 25 pound propane tank, two spark plugs, extra long plug wire
something to make the spark, Straight pipes oh ya a way to release the propane.
My buddies Pete is rigged into the Jake brake high setting. As the Jake kicks in
the valve lets out some propane and the spark plugs start sparking about half way up
the pipes and out comes the blue blow torch looking flame............

Now this works real well for a REAL PETERBILT NOT for a 1/14 TOY
DO NOT TRY yourself you will just hurt your self or worse others around you
