If he's telling the truth, that's something I'd like to see. Looks like a joke to me, but then again there's no reason that extremely stout engine shouldn't be able to take it.

There's only so much pressure it's gonna get with a full bottle. When gases are heated they expand. Expantion makes more more pressure.

As for my 250 shot...

Don't use a torch, as others said it's bad news.. Haven't seen one blow up yet, but I'm sure we've all seen what one can do when it does...

yeah...no torches. If you have ever messed around with aluminum and a oxy/acetalyne torch you would know why. Heat can drastically change the properties of aluminum. Even a weak little propane torch over time will weaken the aluminum. And then its just a matter of time.

Let me know when you are going to heat your bottle in your trunk which sits next to your fuel cell with a torch. I want to have my camara ready for the show.
