You appear to have the most economical petty GQ in Australia

Best I get is about 6km/l on a highway run.

I was driving on Sunday in my bog stock GQ (92 EFI petty converted to straight LPG). I turned a corner and all of a sudden it went from a nice quiet motor to sounding like a race diesel :shock:

I had a Red 253 in my old 40 series. I was happy with it.
I tried all sorts of carbies. The best was a Rochester 4 barrel. But I eventually went with the Holley Projection EFI setup. That was awesome - revved nicely and worked on stupid angles :armsup: As Kingy said, they sound awesome aswell :cool ...
