Hi guys,
I am in the process of building up a GQ shorty and have already put a holden 5 litre in place. I am having a bit of trouble with the engineer as l am not keen on converting the vehicle to gas and he is keen. Has anybody been down the same road with the current EPA emissions regulations and not had to convert to gas ?

Engineering drama's
Sorry guys, should have put more info in the question.
The replacement 5 litre engine is out of a VS series II commodore (is that a 96 ?). It is replacing an "89" TD42. At the moment, the 5 litre is bog stock, l have a catalytic converter already in the system and will try and get all the std pollution gear back on (temporarily) that the holden engine originally came with. I am running a std VN computer which allowed me to get away without running all the unnecessary body control module wiring.
The only hiccup is that lm also running a T400 auto. Im guessing that the computer would be calibrated to run the T700 4 speed auto and so the T400 3 speed may load the engine up a little more.
Thanks for the replies.

God of Magnificant Ideas!
The only time LPG is required for engineering is when the new engine being fitted is older than the vehicles original engine.smee2u wrote:The replacement 5 litre engine is out of a VS series II commodore (is that a 96 ?). It is replacing an "89" TD42.
