    Yeah that's the only thing stopping me from going to the dual fuel setup, it seems pretty complex to set up for an engine like this..... There is a company near where I live that does LPG installs so I'll ask them sometime, I'm in no rush, Im actually enjoying how it runs on lpg, has been set up...

    It does look that way, I have managed to track down the guy who did the installation and engine build for this one, so I'll drop in sometime and surprise him...:D

    So this is how it went back together after I replaced the bolts that run right through the mixer assembly... The only way to fit the air filter on is to squeeze it before fitting, which is what the previous air filter had done to it - so dont say it was the wrong filter:p It seems to seal so I'm...

    Haven't done anymore on the body work but have had a chance to have a look at the carb setup.....any ideas on what type of system it is? Also what's this arrangement on the side of the manifold? Probably a thick question but haven't seen it before! The whole engine bay needs a good tidy...

    Ok yeah that makes sense....I just tapped mine out with a hammer after grinding away for a bit....will definitely be doing the other side too and sealing them up so they dont act as a rust trap!!.... Yep ok, will speak to the guys that did the conversion on mine originally and see what they say....

    Ok I'll definitely be checking it out, I want to convert this to dual fuel if possible so I'm figuring that would be the best option or not?

    Haha ok, yeah south island, Dunedin.... No the arches are ok I guess...the left side 1 had a big section or rust around what I'm thinking is the seatbelt mount? One of the previous owners has done a couple of repairs.... But it's all looking pretty tidy compared to what I expected!! Sorry...
