View Full Version : Flame throwing exhaust...How...HOw...HOW??????? TheChevyLives 06-30-2002, 07:15 PM Man......just saw the mustang mower episode of "monster garage". They rigged up a flame throwing exhaust kit on the stang. How in the hell can this be done , its gotta be one of the most wicked custom tricks ive seen. A definate head turner.:naughty: BIGBADSILVERADO 06-30-2002, 08:04 PM The way I used to do that was to drill a hole in the tailpipe about a foot from the end...weld a nut onto the tail pipe over the hole...thread in a sparkplug...mount a ignition coil in the rear, located by the newly installed spark plug...connect a plug wire from the coil to the plug....ground one side of the coil, the other side run a +12 volts to a switch mounted within drivers reach....richen up the carb....pump the pedal a few times.......rev it slightly...flip the switch... WA-LA singed leg hair on unsuspecting people behind your car! I've only done this on REAL CARS (V8's)....as for newr FI cars.....Not sure how well it would work.....

I was thinking of getting a kit but I think it wouldn't work like I would like it to hehe. I dunno if you should ignite the exaust 3 feet from the engine =/ But it might still be an idea :-D Green95Hoe 06-30-2002, 11:15 PM I dont think this would work on a never truck like say a 95 TBI. Id love to have some crazy sheat like that but I think the dam, computer will keep the mixture too lean for flamage. Anyone got any opinion on this black_yukon 07-02-2002, 02:19 AM How about one of those push button starters off of a gas barbeque???:naughty: Shift 07-03-2002, 03:58 PM How in the hell can this be done , its gotta be one of the most wicked custom tricks ive seen.

Red4wdKon 07-03-2002, 04:38 PM coming from a 94 tbi, fuel injected vehicle, all you have to do is remove the guts from the catalytic converter, and have a chip, this makes the mixture rich(er), and then get your computer used to making it rich by running the shi* out of it all the time, then push your little tailpipe barbeque button, and let em burn.

You would have to burn your own chip.:read: The 02 sensor would have to be eliminated, and this would cause serious tuning issues becuase the O2 is a primary sensor in TBI equipped vehicles. It would have to run in open loop all the time, say hello to single digit fuel mileage. :D Red4wdKon 07-05-2002, 05:51 PM well, maybe mine is just extremly out of tune, but when i romp on my gas several times, i can tell my exhaust mixture is running rich, i bet i could make flames, but i'm more interested in trying to go fast... Green95Hoe 07-06-2002, 07:32 PM I wish there was a way to test it out before drilling holes and mounting plugs and coils. I already have a hollow cat and I know Im running real rich so it might work Red4wdKon 07-07-2002, 09:12 PM one way to test that is to hold a lighter to the exhaust, strike when ready.:rocking: Green95Hoe 07-08-2002, 11:34 AM Id like to keep what hair I do have on my arms. I do have a psycho buddy that I might be able to coax into being the guinea pig for me. Wouldnt the lighter go out with the air from the exhaust though timamin 07-08-2002, 02:03 PM maybe you could take one of those sparkers off a grill and try it that way. I personally wouldn't do it lol but hey if you want to know I guess that's pretty much the only way. 91_bowtie 07-08-2002, 06:28 PM This thread needs a disclaimer:D Just hold the lighter at the bottom edge of the tailpipe and light it. If it lights the exhaust, I will be surprised that you are running that rich.:smokin: :D oracleknowledge 07-09-2002, 02:09 PM Originally posted by 91_bowtie This thread needs a disclaimer:D Just hold the lighter at the bottom edge of the tailpipe and light it.
