Mounting N2O bottle ?

[Jake W2]

What do you guys think?
Mount the bottle valve side tward the front of the boat or tward the back?

You definately need the valve towards the front of the boat, you want to be able to get all of the n20 out. When it runs low, the hose will not pick it up, the front of the boat will lift and sometimes it will not spray correct.

That was my thought too just wanted to see how many more thought the same.

Jake w2 you shouldnt run your bottle under 900 psi ether and mount the bottle with the valve facing the front.

this is just my 2 had a 10# bottle would not last long and under 900 psi it sucked so i put a 15# and it woke the nos up it's only a 150 shot deal but makes bambam run like hell

[nascar97]

jdf yuor no2 will run better with a bigger bottle because the pressure is higher

Smalls I have one of Brians(SB Products) NOS brackts and had a flat mount like you have in the pic, Brian was nice enough to make a stringer mount for me and trade out the flat mount.But it was backwards probely some miscomunication on my part.But Brian being a good guy will make it rite for me. :rollside: Very nice flat and I have read it runs good to.

Runs good?
That boat made my ass PUCKER. We burned down a brandy new 10lb bottle last season.
When I got out of that boat I KNEW I would have a flat by the next season.

Wasn't that setup what you used to have?
Brian

Incindently I made the stringer mount after boat guys started buying them up.
The flat base wasn't setup to be mounted on a stringer.
When I designed the stringer mount I didn't think of the mount being only left or right hand. Dammit. Happens sometimes.
Unfortunately the 50% chance that the "hand" Jake needed is not the hand I made, completely my fault actually.
I have to make more bases and set them up for the other hand.

Wrong it is harder to keep pressure up with the larger bottle. Bottle heaters work wonders. The most important thing is where the siphon tube is. You have to remove the valve from the bottle and orientate the tube where gravity can feed it. you can run your bottles vertical if you turn the tube around.
Hope this helps
