Complete Car Hydrogen Conversion Kit From United Nuclear

A good friend of mine just sent me to
The systems works by using hydrogen in a typical (slightly modified) internal combustion engine and instead of burning hydrocarbons it burns the hydrogen. This of course almost eliminates all emissions aside from a small amount of nitrogen oxides which can be easily filtered out.
The genius in this system is that fact that it comes with a solar powered hydrogen generator which you can use to generate your own hydrogen at home. In a nutshell this will allow you to never have to buy gasoline again. Even though the small hydrogen generator will generally take about 2 day to generate enough hydrogen to fill a small canister, you should still be able to always have enough on hand to never buy gasoline again.
Now there will be times where you will need to use gasoline, and this system allows you to switch back and forth between gasoline and hydrogen with a flick of a button, so those long trips are still an option.
THE NEGATIVE:
Unfortunately, due to the fact that Hydrogen gas burns so much faster than Gasoline, engines with compression ratios greater than 9.5 to 1 are very susceptible to damaging pre-detonation (engine knock). For this reason, Hydrogen conversions are not recommended for vehicles with turbochargers, superchargers, or compression ratios greater than 9.5 to 1. Also, because of the higher compression, different ignition system, and host of other factors, the Hydrogen Fuel System will not work on diesel engines.
Now of course with any good system and great idea which saves money and gasoline comes the “Big Business Conspiracy”.. “The Man”. According to Cryptogon.com‘s website, here is the latest news about United Nuclear:
United Nuclear Raided by U.S. Government :
Inventors can’t be allowed to provide viable alternatives to hydrocarbon derived gasoline directly to the public. It just can’t (and will not) be allowed. If you try it, men wearing black ski masks will show up, point guns at your head and steal your plans, records and computers.
They hate us for our freedom!
People who make jokes about “conspiracy theories” should try this one on for size:
Instead of moving forward with our research, 100% of our time and money is now being spent on fighting a legal battle with the U.S. Government.
Some time ago, the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) recruited the SWAT team and other Government agencies to raid our facility confiscating all papers, plans and computers.
They are attempting to block all sales and use of the chemicals used in our Hydrogen storage system.
The materials in question are common Oxidizers and have never been illegal to own or purchase and are not even classified as hazardous materials.
Isn’t that just a shame?
Well until they are up and running again, there are other viable options like this

We all need to act on this. United Nuclear should publish their research to P2P networks and let foreign companies pick it up on one condition: NO PATENTS.
There is a world outside of America as well, and American oil politics is trying to ruin it intently! Energy is most certainly not the property of Bush and his bullies. Let’s prove it to them.
I’ve been watching United Nuclear for a while, and I think their project deserves respect and encouragement. They should have some kind of PayPal-donation-system. If their product works as proposed, it might be THE system that saves the world (taking into account the growing number of cars in China and India).
Talk about this technology to everyone you know. Public interest is what will save this project!

I am currently researching and building a very compact and economical hydrogen generator specifically designed for 4cylinder/4carb motorcycles. It uses four separate reaction chambers and uses the carbs to control airflow. The carb bowls and float chambers are removed and replaced with gas outputs from each of the four reaction chambers. The reaction is controlled by a simple 555 PWM circuit which rate is adjusted by a simple variable resistor or pot at the pulley on the carbs (the system is very easy to manufacture and install). I plan on retaining the tank for water supply and with a small water pump for topping up the generators (giving the internals of the tank a rustproof coating, using stainless throughout and installing a stainless exhaust system.
The bike being used is my Bandit 1200,which as is returns 35-40 mpg on standard fuel and I believe I could easily achieve upwards of 80mpg of WATER with this system, and as each carb has it’s own reaction chamber it will be easier to fine tune and balance the distribution of hydrogen to each cylinder.
Modifications for longevity will be things such as ceramic coating on the engine internals and a lower compression ratio (a cylinder rebore or head gasket spacer) and titanium valves to withstand the higher temperatures and an ignition advancer/retarder system to alter timings to prevent engine detonation. Also valve clearance tolerances may need to be revised, again to the higher operating temperatures withing the combustion chamber.
All of the above internal engine work will be carried out by mechanics sourced from outside the project and as such I will have to wait until I have enough funds to do so.
It’s a shame the government don’t give hand outs to people trying to improve the world!!

Really good information on hydrogen kit for cars. this is a good fuel option.
