LPG on 4.5 and 4.8 motors

Is it really worth converting these motors to LPG ? Has anyone just done a straight gas conversion ? or are they all dual fuel ?

GQ 2.8t and 3.0litre geraboxes

Can anyone tell me if the rd28t and the 3litre GQ gearboxes are the same?
If not are they interchangeable?
Think I might ditch the rd258t motor for a 3.0 litre turbo skyline or VL commadore motor?
These motors are cheap.
