Kurt...yes Grainger should have those. Just have to be sure its an inert gas regulator and capable of regulating 3000 psi from 0-1500psi. They are anywhee from $200-300. The nitrogen bottle in that pic has since been replaced with what would be a 10lb bottle size. Its perfect. It will push the full 15 lbs out of the nitrous bottle and then part of another when the nitrogen bottle is serviced to 2800 psi or so. I just used a schreader valve in the port on the nitrous valve, and cap it when diconnected. I feel better about dropping it off for servicing with it capped just in case. When its all set....I just reach back ...open the nitrous valve...then open the nitrogen valve...then using the regulator..dial up the presure to where i want it. You can hear the nitrogen squeeling as its entering the nitrous bottle. I raise the pressure to 1150 psi for my dry setup. When I hit the juice during a run...you can instantly hear the squeeling again as the nitrogen is replacing the nitrous as your heading down the track. At the end of the 1/4 the nitrous pressure is always right on the money at 1150 +/- 50 psi. I have been using it for almost year and love it...especially in winter time. No running down batteries...or idling in the staging lanes waiting on your heater. Just turn the handle and go. Best part...is when the nitrous bottle is about half empty...the pressure almost remains constant during the runs.


I am working on another setup that will keep pressures near perfect the entire run.

For $9 you can buy a can of map gas and a nozzel. It burns a whole hell of alot hotter than propane and it's portable.
