Do it.

They only have to tailgate once and they'll learn :)

oh yeah, and if you are found out by the authorities - prepare an Arsehole the size of a dinner plate and large Russian boyfriend by the name of Ogle.

had one on my old 33 for 6 months or so... woks well.. quick flick of the switch will set of a huge yellow flame... if you flick it on with your foot down big blue flame.... used to be able to set wooded post alight with ease...... not good for the car (although they say its ok)... used to get the occational backfire..... but used to be that loud and pwerful it would cause the car to missfire.... started happening more and more.... got rid of the kit.

Yeah what we'll all do is talk about when we had one but not give any relevant Info..

I'll start with something useful.

Mitch Says: where did you guys get these kits from? How much?

:D

Ask abu, he had one For Sale.

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF HOW DID I MISS THIS THREAD.

if u want a actual "flame thrower" kit it costs u as lil as 100bux. theyll stick something at the end of ur exhaust which will seriously make u blow flames

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
