I'm already on it..... I've been gathering parts as they come for the last 2 weeks, and i'm going to go purchase my uber expensive stainless steel pipe soon...... I think i can have a NICE setup for under $100. I"m curious to try it. I've had my engineers look at it, and the design i've come up with is sound, and electrical engineer has already started gathering parts for the wiring (And i have some BEAUTIFUL wire. 30+ feet of wiring harnesses off GM cars, Battery Cables, aux, cables, etc). My physics professor friend says "It could help" and "Could work", we've talked about the fall backs and flaws, and the logic is there.......its just building an efficient generator to make it actually....."WORK".

I've looked over the commercially available designs, and those that were custom made, and i'm happy with what i have planned, and excited to see it bubble. I will be producing HHO, how much of an improvement it makes on a Lamda Fuel Injected system that i have little knowledge of tweaking......that we shall see.

I'll make it work. It just requires time.

-Craig The only thing preventing me from time travel is i do not like delorians, and i am unable to reliably attain 88mph in my vanagon. I've got the flush capacitor though....
