CNG Conversion??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anyone done any research on converting one of our trucks , or any other vehicle for that matter, to CNG? I'm wondering what the cost might be or if it's even possible with our engines/carbs.

I saw Boone Pickens on Leno a couple weeks ago and they were talking about CNG from America to replace foreign oil. Jay said he had converted one of his 50's era Cadillac's to CNG and it cost him about $1.40 per gallon to fill up. Jay just happen to leave the cost of the conversion out of the conversation....

I would think this would be a cool project. If anybody has any info, I'm sure the rest of us would be interested to hear....Thx.
