if you want the best sparks, and brightest drag you're gonna pay out of your butt, if you can even find the stuff, it's called ZIRCONIUM, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zirconium, no, it's not the same as the fake diamond you bought your girl cause she won't know the difference, this is a very soft PRECIOUS metal with a melting point of about 3300 degrees f but the boiling/combustion point of solid zirconium is around 8000 degrees f and it will drag away very fast if you don't control your valves right, if you can find it and afford it and you use it make sure you're doing so with a very slow drop speed so you can barely touch them on the ground so they don't just get eaten up, when this stuff drags it literally looks like lightning striking from under your truck, it's AWESOME but dangerous, in powder form it's more combustible than magnesium, sparks=powdered metal, so your best bet is to put a bar of it just behind your rollpan and far away from your gas tank, DO NOT try to weld this stuff as it is semi-combustible in solid form and DO NOT mount blocks of it along your frame rail or under your cab, again, THIS STUFF IS VERY COMBUSTIBLE IN POWDER/SPARK FORM AND WILL NOT HESITATE TO MAKE YOU WATCH IN HORROR AS YOUR BABY BURNS TO THE GROUND, I SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE BECAUSE I WAS TOLD "OH JUST GET IT AND MOUNT IT LIKE A REG DRAG BLOCK" DO NOT DO THAT, VERY DANGEROUS the following statement is straight from wikipedia "Zirconium is used in weapons such as the BLU-97/B Combined Effects Bomb for incendiary effect." SEE THIS LINK AND GET EDUCATED BEFORE YOU RISK IT http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zirconium.... know what you're getting into....
I WOULD SERIOUSLY RECOMMEND ONLY USING THIS TO DRAG FOR A VIDEO SUCH AS SURFACE DVD, LOW LIFE, CRIME PAYS OR DOMINATION THE VIDEO
