I've converted my Valiant to run a dedicated LPG fuel system. The whole Petrol system is gone.

Its been an ongoing mission but today it fnaly paid off.

The car is converted, Dyno tuned, has an LPG warrant, instlation cert, new Testing Station WOF, and rego.

To drive it's better in every way, smoother, idles better, easy to start and goes just as well as before. Also $1.33/L at the pumps.

It's early days yet but kays per litre seems better than petrol too. When I get a Rock Gas card $ per litre will drop again too.

So yeah, so pleased with it.

Photos.

LPG filler is where the petrol filler was.

Tank in the boot, lost some boot space, not worried.

Impco 300a gas carb mounted on a Holley throttle plate. It works like a very large Stromberg.
