<VV> Propane

[FrankCB at aol.com]

You could always ask Tom Keosababian about using propane in your  Corvair.  
His "Clean Air" Corvair ran 173 mph at Bonneville using propane  with twin 
turbochargers.  Of course, he DID use lots of water  injection to keep it 
all together!!
LPG is a great automotive fuel.  It's just a question of the COST of  using 
it compared to gasoline.

Liquified petroleum gas -- "propane " -- has been a byproduct  of oil 
refining, 
but now about 55% of propane comes from natural gas,  according to the 
Propane 
Education & Research Council  (www.propanecouncil.org). It also says that 
propane 
is the most widely  used alternative fuel in the world, with 14 million 
vehicles 
burning it,  though not many in the U.S. Yet the infrastructure is in place 
here  
for us to use if we want to.
