In the "old days" they used to drill and TAp a Spark plug in the Tailpipe. Drive it with the Manual choke out a bit. Then after the exhaust was Rich with fuel, Tap a switch that is runs 12V to the Spark plug.
It worked well, not the flame thrower affect but you'd get a flame.

Oh, See the movie 'Grease' There's a couple of seens where the Greaser did this.
