after some of the storys iv read over the past couple of days im tempted to stay away from lpg altogether!! i know the mixer rings aint that great. im only looking at lpg as a highway alternative. im not gonna do a full conversion (lpg only) it isnt what i wanna do.

The kit i was referring to is brand new. just the open loop mixer ring over the carby, not the sensor version. whole thing for $250 to my door.
im probley not gonna do it now anyway, i want it to run with no hiccups on both petrol and lpg and by the sound of it, it wont.

is there anyway to get a non-ecu mixer DF set up to run well? or is it pretty much one or the other?? iv seen some tank setups on holden 1-tonners where they have long thin tanks hidden under the tray. would there be room for such a setup on the brumby??

i can buy the whole gas kit + tank for under $500. install is pretty easy, the tuning would be the hard part. but is it worth it :/

engine swap is out. i want a 4x4, not a project car. i'll def keep the ea81 non turbo.
a weber conversion will prob be as far as i go down the performance side.
i wanna keep it petrol or duel fuel.
