No apology necessary. I was just trying to let you know that you are probably headed for an agonizing experience if you really want to use Kevlar. That's what we do here on KRnet... Mark Langford ML at N56ML.com website at http://www.N56ML.com --

Mark Langford, It looks like I need to apologize. I had not intended to offend you in any way and my second question was not a challenge to your authority. It was intended as a segway to further the dialogue. I also apologize for presenting what seemed to extol the virtues of Kevlar. I had

NOS is a high pressure gas that is delivered from steel pressure vessels (think high pressure oxygen in an oxy-acetylene set up). It certainly is not light and the hp increase probably would not be worth hauling the tank and control servos and plumbing around after you have exhausted the gas. JMH
