Some points:
1) The BATF does not consider either propane nor gasoline as an 
explosive.

2) Propane has LESS energy per lb or by volume than gasoline does.

3) "IT'S" all in how you use the stuff...

Excellent!  If I may ask - who's conversion kit did you use?  I'd like 
to contact them...

Check out this site for DIRECT LIQUID PROPANE INJECTION!  I want to do 
this (and gain a permanent EPA emissions exemption in the process! :)  )

I bet the cooling effect of the LPG would largely offset the 
traditionally lower power produced by pre-vaporized propane "carbs"...  
Kinda like extremely atomized gasoline injection (air assisted 
injection) having a worse VE than the traditional partially atomized 
gasoline injection....

If anyone else has info on this topic (LPG injection) I'd like to hear 
it!
