Hello All,

I've been lurking around here for a while and though I should finally seek some assistance from the Clevo experts.

I'm thinking of converting my F100 to LPG, it's apparently got a black 302 Cleveland from an XE with a mild cam. When I bought it the seller was positive that it was a 351 but I've had two opinions saying that it's definitely a 302. I'm trying to find out what would be the best mods to get done so I'm not losing out when it's on gas. I also don't want be poor after doing this so I'm thinking around the $5000 mark inc. the $2000 grant for conversion??? Am I dreaming here?

I mainly use the F100 on the weekends and don't haul a lot or tow anything, just drive around town so no long journeys on the highway.

Here's some pics of the F100 in anyone interested:

hi I fit gas for a living your question is very vague do you want economy ,power,reliability how many kliks on the engine has your truck got a closed or open loop fuel system do you have fuel injection or a carb single fuel is best to set up or do you want both there are three different gas systems and a dozen mixes of each

Lucky the photos show thats its just and old Carbie job , as the XE's were .
First thing is DUAL fuel is a Dog and wont run well on either ! Make up your mind , A Impco 425 and B2 convertor will run it quite nicely if you want to run full dedicated gas.
Just stay away from Sprintgas crap , and dont touch GRA stuff unless they are giving it away.

Thanks guys, even with the rising prices in fuel I'm still not ready to do the conversion yet, it's kind of been put on hold. I currently don't get the truck out enough to warrant the expense.

If I do go ahead I think it will be definitely on straight gas. It would be nice to have all three (economy, power and reliability) I guess economy would have to be the priority otherwise it wouldn't be worth doing.

cheers.
