Guys I'm thinking of getting my VY V6 put on LPG, I have been told the VX and VY do not handle the LPG conversion very well, issues with the valve guides. I have also been told by the guy doing the conversion that it is BS, but he has heard the same ting but said he has done 15 od conversions on these models and have not had any problems.

Have anyone of you had it done and what do you think?

i havnt personally done one but worked on plenty that have. when they start getting high kays a lot get valve issues and other top end issues you also do loose a noticable amount in performance but if you get it done properly it should be fine for at least 100,000 km's
