Propane or Gas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am thinking of the idea of making my truck to run on propane. Where I live propane is thirty cents cheaper then gas and propane has around 110 octane rating. Propane also has less hydrocarbons and burns cleaner. There is less polution with propane because it burns so clean. If I do go with propane I will have a compresson ratio of around 12:1 because the high octane rating. I would also put a big tank on the underside of each side of the box to look clean and have a big fuel capacity. But I still dont know if I should go with propane. What do you guys think if I should stay with gas or go propane.

P.S. - Does anyone know of good propane systems too.
