      Exactly the reason why it was banned from racing in a lot of classes during the sixties/seventies. Mainly due to Ak Miller who realized the natural partnership between Liquified Propane and turbo charging. His creations were so superior to the competition, it was seen as an unfair advantage.

      I talked with the guys from PPI who supplied the fancy extruded aluminum fuel tank for the mothers Chevelle (which I guess has become my benchmark for this whole idea) and they said that they are trying to get orders for fleet vehicles (150 total orders) so that they can cover DOT approval/fees and that once they have that, they will make their tanks available for purchase in the US; hopefully in the coming year. Once that is all said an done they said that their tanks cost right around $600 (69 camaro fit) plus valves, which all things considered didn't sound too outrageous

      On a slightly different thought, it seems like it would be a hundred times easier to do a carburated style set up and use an MSD box for the ignition...I have seen a hundred of these set ups (well maybe 3 or 4) on 4x4's and rock crawlers and they can be pieced together for a few hundred bucks??? Just thinking out loud...
