The flamer is getting propane!
« on: Mar 20, 2008, 12:30:29 AM »
Well i got off my ass today and started puttin in the propane set up i got. Damm thing is easy as it looks, The only hard part is locating all the factory vacume lines and figuring out what stays and what goes!  pretty much all goes!



here are some shots.
no more carb


vacuum nightmare cleaned up


don't need this any more!
