NOS question

I would like to install a dual stage kit on my truck. I was curious to see, if i could get my hands on a 47lb empty CO2 cylinder if it would work for nitrous. I dont want to have to worry about saying "well i lost because the bottle went dry" i have heard that alot. And i have already found a nifty place to put it, well maybe dangerous place but hey worse case scenario if falls off the chassis and shoots down the highway.

they make propane tanks specifically designed to go where your spare tire is now, im sure you could fill that just as easy as a CO2 tank, and you wouldnt have to jimmy rig anything.

As sweet as a hundred pounder would be straped in the back, a propane bottle isn't built for that kind of pressure.

Now Co2 tanks will work fine need to be fitted with a "draw straw" but handle the pressures fine.

Found this....

Thanks

thanks for your help. I work at pepsi and i can get a tank with no problem. I am just wondering about the draw straw and pressure releif valves though. I will read it again more thoroughly. Maybe even call those people.
