Question N.O.S. Bottle..................

I was wondering where everyone has mounted their bottle. Seems that a few have them in their beds.Has any one tried to mount their bottle inside the cab? I was told by a friend that it may be possible to use a 5lb. bottle and possibly mount it inside...Any info. to ease the install would be a great help.

Why would you want to mount it in the cab?

If you mounted in the cab, You will need a blow down tube.

Personally I would not want a bottle in the cab with me for more reason that I can name, most have to do with safety.

I was once told that in some states since pure N20 (medical grade) is a controled substance, legal road vehicles have to have the bottle out of reach of the driver, this doesn't hold water with me, but it is an intresting thought.
Only medical professionals would have access to medical grade, Speed shops sell nitrous plus, with added sulfur to discourage substance abuse. Note that the added sulfur is so small that it does not affect performance.
Also know that VERY BAD SMELL after using nitrous is common, and is caused by the sulfur.

Thumbs up

the advantage to being a gas distributor (welding/safety supplies) is that you can get commercial grade N2O 99.95% fairly cheap. 50lb cylinders, contents about $20, it is used to make whipped cream and has other commercial uses. the medical grade is also available (99.995%) but is 3x the price and is only to be sold to dentists, hospitals, etc. if you get a whiff of that sulfur added stuff while changing out your cylinders,it will irritate the hell out of your throat/lungs.

Burn Nitrous smells bad...
So MRBBQMAN, sounds like your tale pipe will not smell that bad...

I meet a guy who claimed that he wasn't running nitrous, but he had just street raced, less that a 1/4 mile away, and you could smell it. I could have been wrong, some nights (some Saturday nights) Telegraph smells like burn nitrous.
