<< I've got a question or two:
 
 Has anyone though about or attempted designind an EFI system for
 Propane/Butane fuel. I would think that liquid propane entering an intake
 manifold at 300 PSI at -80 degrees or whatever it boils at would do wonders
to
 lower intake temps, plus with a stoich ratio nearing that of Gasoline and an
 Ocatne rating of 130 seems like it would be an ideal fuel for super high
 performance turbo charged engines.. Not to mention the fact that all those
EPA
 CARB guys would love Propane's low emmision exhaust gasses. Has anyone found
 an electronic fuel injector capable of withstanding the high pressures and
low
 temperatures for such a setup? 
 
 Thanks! >>
I recall someone at a college had done that with a Briggs and Stratton motor.
Sent a letter to the list some time ago, Maybe it is still availible.
