  1. Thanks, it's about the same on milage. The cool thing is that I'll be adding a small BBQ to the car for burgers and beer stops. I was laughing when he pulled it in the trailer. Had to back out and pull the whip pin..
  2. Hey people. I just did a propane conversion on an older play-tech sand car that a customer brought to our shop. I thought that I would share this with you as I believe it may help people with bad running carb setups and also eliminate some of the gas hazards. The system is real easy to install and makes real good power. I will have a video from the dunes real soon but you can hear it running in this little video that we shot. This system is mounted on a 215 Buick V8 making about 300 HP. Other than the mounting of the tanks, the kit can just bolt on. It will also run a turbo system with no problem. The octane level is about 115 and it allows you to advance your timing making good power with no detonation. One of the safety features is that it will not spill in a roll over and if you are in a steep climb it will not flood. It has a very low stall rate compared to gas and if you buy from a propane company such as pro flame it runs about $3.50 a gal. compared to the high cost of race gas. Here are some pics of the install and a short vid. Video
