LPG?

What kit?
Where did you mount the vaporisor?
What tank, pipe route?
Did you drill out the injector nozzles?
Any snags?
Where did you get RPM and lambda feeds?
Where did you take the coolant feed for the evaporator?

As a matter of interest would it be any easier to chage the HBV when the Plenum is off, rather that stripping the scuttle panel off?

A bit of a Naive question I know, but not exactly sure where the HBV is.

TIA.   :y

Not sure what kit, james, was alredy installed when i got the Elite.
Pic of the vaporiser mounted adjacent to the alternator
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/juedu2/100_5112.jpg), And YES i have just noticed a nut missing from the mounting.

If you want to meet and look then we can arrange something.
Coolant pipes are taken from the heater bypass valve and the coolant bridge. as for the wiring.....NOT A CLUE. ;D ;D

HBV is right at the back of the OS head on a thin metal bracket. Taking the scuttle off makes it very accessable :y
