the good flame thrower kits have their own coil and a switch. hooks to the battery and from the coil to the sparkplug

I've never seen a flame thrower kit like that before. Usually they rev the engine up, cut the engine sending raw fuel through it, and that is when the spark plug in the pipe ignites the fuel. I've never seen one shoot a constant flame like that. Don't tell me Fords are running "that" rich?

Thats not a flame thrower kit...That is Fords optional welding kit. If you break down (and you will) All you have to do is weld it back together with the tail pipe!

AH......sweet ***! Also doubles as a cig lighter for when you're out changing a flat and left your lighter in the truck. Even comes with spare wire clothes hangers for those camp fire hotdog roasts. They think of everything
