alright heres one for you all......im still in high school and go to a trade school as well...at the trade school i take diesel mechanics and my teacher is wanting to build up a 12 valve to put in a jeep or something...well anyway i was talkin to him about it because ill be working on it and he says that hes gonna put 2 fuel pumps on it and have a "two shot" system...has anyone heard of this? hes sayin hes gonna use a m11 turbo and nitrous with propane..... :

 

Good luck with the 2 pumps.
Propane is a waste of time in my opinion, you can get all the power you want from Diesel #2 and the proper air.
Also use an HX40, you get better results.

ive just never heard of it and it seems you can get alot of fuel out of one pump alone...i just dont see how it would work..i dont think propane and nitrous are really needed either

 

whats your reasoning behind that? I have propane and my truck runs twice as good with it and I get over 20 mpg, my girlfriends dad (designer if the system) gets 28- 29 mpg . His truck is bone stock with a rotary pump and it runs like a scalded dog ;D.
I dont know about the m11 turbo that Im assuming hes taking off of a m11 which is made for pulling HEAVY loads and not spooling very quickly at all. IMO I would go with a B1KS, that would make that jeeper SCREAM ;D . Dont forget, by adding the bigger turbo you will need a lot more fuel.
Good luck and it sounds like a heck of a fun project!

ive never really liked propane..just me i guess.im not talkin it down its just somethin i wouldnt wanna mess with..not sayin i wouldnt try it out though...

hes wanting to get a turbo off a cummins m11, i tried to explain he would need a lot of fuel and a lot of rpms to get it spooled. he must be able to get it cheap is what im thinking...hes still kind of learning the high performance..i had to tell him about camplates delivery valves etc...

 

I used propane on my 1999 Powerstroke I had. It's a great 100hp adder. It just runs out too quick and cost too much to refill. It was real fun to use but being that it was a powerstroke I had the propane because Powerstrokes can't make good power without drugs.... without spending boocoos of money. Besides, it's much cooler making the big power on #2 alone.
