Flame throwers?

Just seeing who makes a good flame thrower kit... Has anyone used the autoloc setup? Just trying to get advice on these cause I've never dealt with them before...

 

They are dumb, just my opinion, please don't kill me.

Flame throwers are silly.

Don't use flame throwers. There dumb and will ruin you engine by flooding it with un-burnt fuel.
Just my 2¢.

 

You guys are Hard........man, flame throwers look very cool at night. I've never had a car with them & always thought they were stupid too,

But, at 2009 Greaserama.....it was just BadAss seeing them things light up the entire drive-in. "Time seemed to stand still when them guys to showing it off" Carl Hagan

Also, try a search. There are a few different ways to set 'em up that don't "flood" the engine...

 

I don't have em...but Ive always wanted to light up a tailgater.

 

I built my own, plugs in the headers ( lake style ) and a fuel line, yes a fuel line no flooding needed. The plug will light up the exhaust and I open the fuel solenoid and that gets the fire going. Or should I not use them because Michael Dorman said not to and they are dumb?

 

Advice is worth what it costs (in his case 2c). How did you get the fuel into the Lakes? injectors?

 

no I used 1/4 steel line and squeezed them down so they spray a flat pattern, I used a fuel solenoid from an old NOS system to control the flow. It works, it was free and it is scary...lit up the motel parking lot at Billetproof

 

good times

 

Flamethrowers are for getting attention when your car can't stand on its own merits.

 

says you.... are you jealous?

 

damn guess my car cant stand alone huh.. that must be why i have flame throwers.. i can make ya the boxes for about 35 bux if ya want one...

 

had them on my 59 wagon yrs ago, loved them

 

Nope, that was my revised reply. The first one was Flame throwers are as gay as Richard Simmons.

 

I had them for years, (I used model T coils) before they became so popular, and yes, I ruined a good engine. But the main reason I suggest you not do it, is it only takes one mistake or one asshole for someone to get hurt, and if it happens these days, you'll lose everything you own to some fuckin TV lawyer.
Think how you'd feel if just as you lit em up, someones kid got loose and ran behind your car. Just my 2 cents

People either really love them or hate them as I am sure you have by now realized. I don't know much about the autoloc ones but if yiu decide that flamethrowers are for you go ahead and PM me for my phone number as I am the oldest dealer for the Superflame flamethrower kits from Coxter Electronics. But either way I am a fan of flamethrowers and I would love to talk to you about them good or bad.

Thanks

True...but the same can be said of over-the-top custom paint, airbags, wheels, big engines, hotrods/customs in general, etc, etc.......

Otherwise we'd all like Kias....
Although I'm not a big fan of flamethrowers like I used to be....but on the "right" car...well...

Propane works nice and is safer/cheaper....

 

I dig them. heres mine.

 

Richard Simmons is gay?

 

So I have been told. I always thought he was just quirky and on speed?

 

my car gets attention without the flame throwers ,see for yourself









this last picture is a proof for the cover of Renagade Magazine.

 

I wouldn't be seen in your 'car' it's totally embarrassing and quit being a thread hijacker.

 

your correct you would not be seen in my car....you haven't enough class, sorry

 

I don't think he is, and I believe he has at least one piece of proof.

But flamethrowers are more of a rat rod thing than a traditional thing. Yeah there were some back then, but not like now. It's a desperate plea for attention.

 

Actually I think Nads is way over the rat rod thing....

 

Damn Nads tell em how you really feel!!! lol
