How do i install and anti-siphon system into my co2 tank?
And what is lighter, chrome-moly or aluminum?
-Thanks

I'm pretty sure chromoly is heavier than aluminum.

I'd recommend that you bring your tank to a pro paintball shop and get it installed by a pro airsmith. If you do it wrong, the tank could become disconnected from the valve when it's filled, and the tank will become a rocket. It already killed like 3 people from poorly installed anti-siphon tubes.

did it really kill 3 people?

I would not be surprised if it killed more than that.

Also, the only picture i have seen of a gun with an anti-siphon had the tank coming straigh down out of the gun where the magazine on a real gun would be.

Will the anti-siphon work without any other upgrades or add-ons on my 98c?

I know it probably would not hurt the marker for the liquid to get in but i think it will be more consistant with the anti-siphon.

About how much will it cost me to get the anti-siphon installed?
And is there any tanks with it already installed?

If you had a Co2 tank that screwed into the gun vertically with an anti-siphon tube, that would be the most retarded thing ever. It would be sucking up nothing but liquid, without the tube it would be sucking up nothing but air. But he could have planned for that and made it a siphoned tank.

From the other thread, having a siphon tube installed into your tank would be just as good as HPA with some flaws, this could only be used with your gun and other blowbacks.

You don't need any more ups for the tube to work. It just goes inside your tank, and sucks up gaseous Co2.

Like I said before, it would cost around $15 - $20 at a pro shop, and you can get tanks with them already inside, but they cost around $40 because you're also paying for the tank.

I think the picture with the tank vertical under the gun was actually a siphon tank, not an anti-siphon. They are not to be confused.

It will not be as good as HPA. Not really close. If you are shooting at a decent rate of fire, and the temperature is on the colder side. Some times the syphon tube is useless. But it should cost around $15-20 to get it installed. I put one in myself and we had to sand it down a little but all was fine. And a pretty simple installation.
