I know there is guys out there running propane on this site... I have searched and come up with some info but need some more.... There is kits out there you can buy off the shelf (gotpropane.com) but hey as we all know guys on this site are do it yourselfers.... from searching one gentle man Disciples Performance says...
"propane install on what a SBC BBC? if its for a small block a 425 with holley throttle plate with model E Vaporizer and VFF30 Lockoff will work money if its a big block just run dual 425's with dual vaporizers and a VFF30 Lockoff"
After searching some of those parts out they look a whole lot like the off the shelf kits minus hoses....
I know you have to run high compression and exhaust vales is an issue.... I currently have a 350 with vortec heads, running MLS (multiple layer steel) head gaskets to get back to my 84 cc camber lower compression so I can run regular gasoline. So technically I could run a standard head gasket and get the hugh compression needed fairly cheap with my current set up....
Sooooo time to flew and show me what you guys know.....

also remember your mech and vac adv timing will be different in the range of 12 - 15 deg mech adv and 38 - 40+ vac adv. just get the heads rebuilt with stelite seats and valves to take the higher heat range.
