Lakeside Automotive in reservoir are to be recomended. They fit Impco setups at a very reasonable price. What area are you located in?

My conversion on EB cost $2200 around 18mnths ago, but they would be dearer now, look them up and ring for a quote and timeframe. Impco systems have the reputation for reliability, set and forget. Some however claim that Impco conversions use more gas than some other conversions. I use 16-18L/100k in outer suburban driving which is acceptable to me.

The LPG section in Fordforums has a few people and fitters located down SE Melbourne. Try asking there if you cant get the info here.

Rapid Flow over in Hoppers Crossing ( outter west ) do Gas Research gear, and also have good workmanship. I've bought some gear thru there for the Turbo Torana project i have on the go & had my mums LPG Converter in her ED rebuilt there, it's run beaut since.
I know they are a long way for some ppl, but good workmanship is worth traveling for. Cheers ToranaGuy

I got mine done in Moorabbin - the car I had at the time was an NL Fairlane, six cylinder model. The LPG system was wired up to the factory gauge and trip computer, so when I ran the car on LPG, I got consumption figures range, etc.
Looking at about a two day job, plus you get a loan car, it is on Leavenswell road, of Chesterville raod. |

My LPG Injection system is hooked up so the factory trip comp gives all the stats, such as instant economy, avg, range to empty & avg speed. The figures are very close to real world consumption, not that my petrol figures were 100% accurate anyway.
Only thing that doesn't work right is range to empty, but i think i have worked out how to fix that, after 4 years of the gas system in my car, lol! Cheers ToranaGuy

Can anyone suggest somewhere in northern suburbs to either rebuild current converter or replace with new?
From what I can tell, alot of places are only interested in full conversions.
