Well the ignition is easily upgraded with a stun-gun. There is a link to a website (I used Burnt Latke for mine) or directions on how to do it on this site. And second I don't think there is a way to meter butane, but propane is easily metered and directions are on this site too.

Just use the search with keywords and your will find the answers you need. You should post pics and give discription of your gun. I'm guessing S/S stands for stainless steel?? We around here love to watch video's of members shooting thier cannon's. Welcome to the coolest spudding website around!
