I was considering converting my 304 to LPG so I'd be interest hearing about any other LPG project.


"mpg" for LPG is a bit tricky when talking in terms of a gas engine conversion. First you typically carry less LPG than you would gasoline, so range is shorter.  If you run LPG in an 8.5:1 engine, I believe the rough number is about 70% efficient compared to gas. LPG has roughly a 130 octane rating. So it's possible to run a higher compression ration (11-13:1) to improve efficiency. I've seen some published numbers roughly 90% in comparison to gas.

But don't you have to use more gallons of LPG compared to gasoline to go the same distance? Or am I thinking of a different fuel?
