(Our local LPG conversion centre has not switched to this system though they have undergone the training. They are not yet convinced of its reliability.) I have heard of initial problems with the pump inside the gas tank which was said to be unsound and costly to replace but has this issue been rectified?Can you recommend any workshops that do this conversion including any that have converted an XR6 Turbo?Are there any issues with insurance companies because of the performance increase?This vehicle is used primarily as our everyday family car and we are attracted to the cost savings of using LP gas. (If it is cheap to run then we will drive it more.)I am interested to hear your comments.ThanksSixpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for a standard conversion on standard power then it is a fairly straight forward operation. If you a looking to mod the car then this needs to be taken into consideration before the conversion because it will effect what needs to be done to the gas system. Your best bet is to get in contact with Mick and Belinda at Pitlane in the new year, as they have a wealth of experience with converting our vehicles to LPG, and seeing as you are in Gippsland would be quite accessible to you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
