Re: Propane ????
GM builds a propane powered C\K truck now. (or they did a few years back) It used all the same sensors and TBI as the gas job did. I don't know\remember if it was duel fuel or not. I do know of a few friends who have made their TBI gas jobs into duel fuel. I don't like the way they set up the fuel tanks though. 27 gallon diesel tank where the spare is and 2 100 pound (20 gallon) regular propane tanks where the old gas tanks were with filling plumbing up to old fuel doors. I would imagine the propane tanks would be OK in a side impact accident seeing they are 1/4" steel but it's kind of scary to me. I have seen the "over/under carb" propane retrofits but don't like them and people I have talked to about them don't like them either. jim

Little stuff left to do is mount winch, wet sand & buff out and build belly pan\running boards. Body work takes lots and LOTS of beer!!!! God, Guts and Guns made America and God, Guts and Guns will preserve it! The worst thing you could do is get into my sights, but that don't matter, you'll never know it, cause you'll never hear the shot  Jim or Paladin whichever you choose.
