    My propane attempt..yes, it's a coffee can

    EDIT

    this is my attempt at propane injection. There is no pics of it in the engine bay...forgot that part, however, when the topic was discussed, we decided that there would be too much fuel and not enough air. So, here is my "hood scoop" (coffee can into a soup can, on my intake)...I was bored, and a little drunk. Either way, it didn't work so, I'm gonna lean out the mixture.

    Don't be sorry. I was just letting you know. Sometimes the poster can see pictures but the others can't.

    Yeah....sorry about that, I was just so excited to be here when I first joined and I didn't know how to get an avatar to fit, and I didn't know about the foundation (thought it was just a name for us), but I did send a mailing address request yesterday, and it didn't go through...delivery failure.

    and yes mgd.......helps with the fact that I'm putting a coffe can on my car as an intake........a lesson to all the young people out there (when your 21) beer makes you more creative

    do we have to be 21? j/k. seriously, go look at the junk yard for a nice hood scoop. it'd be cool to have a good looking functional hood scoop right over the carb.
