Propane injection in a diesel truck

I was at the local 1/8 mile dragstrip last night, and a guy with the 6 liter Powerstroke in a newer F250 Crew cab 4X4 took off squealing all fours, he ran a 9.20 (don't know the MPH) by comparison I have a '91 short bed S10 with a very mild 355 inch V8 (3200lb with me in it) that ran a 9.36 at 74.50mph!

He said the engine was stock internally, he had a Banks exhaust, free fowing inlet and propane injection. This has got to be a 6-7000 lb truck

IMHO, do not go with propane. Go with N2O. It gives way more bang for the buck. It does a little in the cooling of the intake charge but the real power comes from when the mixture ignites and heat is generated, the bonds between the nitrogen and the oxygen break and large amounts of oxygen is produced. This is what will allow you to inject more fuel and still burn it. The oxygen is what makes the power.

I would like to get the technical explaination as to how propane injection works, I'm interested in knowing the "HOW"

Propane injectors do not increase the compression ratio. For the it is only after the cylinder fires that the extra pressure is placed on the piston.

I quess that you can look at it like stuffing two of the same sized pipes. One full of Black Powder and the other using Dynamite then shoot them off. They will both take up the same amount of space. But the one will surely give you a bigger kick in the pants.

Now the guys are making payments on useless trucks sitting in their driveway needing new engines. Dodge and Ford both voided the warranty and will not replace the engines. Meanwhile the guy that installed the systems is untouchable as far as law suites go. For they have tried that route.

LP injector systems are a good thing for making power. But you need to use catution when it comes to them. Do not let yourself get to excited and left wantting more. For you can either make good power safely without damaging your engine or you can destory it in a heart beat. If you install it or have someone install the system. You must make 100% sure every step of the way that it is installed correctly. For all you need to do is ask yourself, Can you afford to buy a new engine if it goes wrong?
