Question: nitrous valve protection?
« on: July 06, 2006, 10:27:28 PM »
What constitutes nitrous valve protection? Do I need to wrap a full band (with enough room for my grubby paw to turn it on/off) of steel around the valve and neck or something simpler like a hoop of tubing or the bottle being well within the perimeter of the frame?

No answers at all. I figure I'll fab something like a propane tank has that bolts to the bottle mount.

The valve protection, just to be safe, should be straps over the bottle valve so if the event on an "issue" the valve cannot be broken off...

I dont think the the protectors that Tiger Racing were using are suffiecent enough for Bonneville inpectors...

Should be good protection around it with straps of some sort..

Dont skimp on valve protection you would hate to get help up in inspection for that issue...

Completly suitable will never happen but it is worse
if you give up and quit trying.
If you seek that job, you are working for everybody and that is the idiot part.
