it needs one (or two) on the chamber side. the chamber side should be the male partbrplatz wrote: i think i will put an oring on the union if it doesnt seal very well. Does it need one on each side or not?

Diffusion?it will be like so:
you fuel it and all the gas is in the back of the chamber, then you add air pushing all the fuel away from the spark plug.
ok sweet that will work i have someit needs one (or two) on the chamber side. the chamber side should be the male part

Basically if you put the propane in then the air it moves it away from the ignition but the propane will diffuse and spread evenly throughout the chamber. Then it will ignite in the back, front, middle, wherever.

What pressure have you tested that sparkplug to? Because the current design is almost guaranteed to leak between the wire and its casing, unless there's something in the middle which prevents that.
How close do you plan on standing to that thing? 160 psi precharge should be fine (about 11x) as long as you go about it safely. That should still give you a safetly factor of almost 2.

Im not sure what X we will bring it to but it will most definalty be remote detonated 6-8x and over
and look at the "brass bruiser" for the wire problem.

Not quite sure I follow here. You do realise that oxy/fuel mixes, for a given amount of fuel, only have slightly over half the power of air/fuel mixes, right? My 20x shots have all been oxy/fuel.DYI you noticed you said almost 2? then your hybrid would have been shreads
