Cheers, Straussy.
I did not have LPG, some of this setup was designed by krimnl, hoon and sandy
I ran a Vortech V1 S trim supercharger, custom made bracket, and pulley off the crank. Belt was a V belt, tensioner off a falcon if I remember correctly. The power steering resevoir also needed to be remotely mounted and a falcon one again was sourced. Also a PWR front mount intercooler.
Autronic computer, custom snorkel, airbox and intake. Bigger fuel pump and surge tank
You will definatley have more power and torque, I felt that my car was quicker through the bush than a lot of the turbo petrol's due to more useable power lower in the rev range
It was a bloody awesome car that is still going strong although I don't own it anymore.
It will be more expensive than a turbo but in my opinion much better.
The Crown supercharger would probably only be good for low boost which may be good, just depends how much power you want.
Your problem may be he dual fuel as I do not know if aftermarket computers can handle that but I have no knowledge of dual fuel at all. The standard EFI computer will need to be upgraded though if you do want to run fuel. That is the other expensive bit. I would budget on 10g for someone else to do the work and using quality components.

Still going hey, I tuned that for Hoon back around 2004? when he did his first Vic Winch, won it too.
Be careful of the small Jap blowers, the largest capacity one I know of is to suit a 2.4L engine. It needs to be spinning nearly twice as fast to make the same boost on a 4.2. At these blower speeds the outlet air temps become very high abd it is possible to exceed the blowers maximum RPM. I wouldn't put them on anything over 3.0L personally.

Maybe put your old qustion back so it doesn't look like Joel and I just made up some crap to post that was completely random and for future reference for others.
Also the new question has been asked numerous times, I would cut the gaurds and lower it. A good cut can look factory with a more standard look and no trouble from the police
Still going strong Joel, the new owner rarely drives it offroad but it still has blown diffs, thrown belts etc...waste of a car and motor. The intercooler you fitted though hasn't missed a beat
Take it easy mate
