Hi all, wow I have been looking for a forum like this for years. I have already spent considerable time reading through so many interesting posts.
I have been interested in propane (LPG) for more than 20 years and it all started with a 427 BB Chevy in a 69 Chevy. With Impco equipment. Then I went supercharged etc etc.
Designed my own regulators and carbs (venturis) and now we are all getting onto injection - love it.
Our company builds the new flat aluminium propane cell. They are getting installed into OEM's vehicle and on sale early in 2012. This OEM business has certainly shaped my thinking in regards to huge safety requirements, from impact testing to fire tests in Canada and England.
Also been close to OEM engineers in regards to liquid/gaseous injection systems and hurdles they had to get over has been immensely interesting for me.
I have also been watching with interest some new equipment in the US, just in preliminary testing – punched out 980HP on a stock GM engine with 7pis of boost… incredible stuff.
I think the more time I spend on this topic the more questions are raised. I look forward to some lively conversation…. As I have a bunch of questions, and hopefully I might have an answer or two they may be helpful to some members.
Im about to start my next project, a CTS V with blown LS2 all on my favourite fuel
Thanks PE
