DBW V6's take the quads ;)

That said, I think I'd use twins, and just change them every couple of years.

We know that ignition is more important for LPG, so going down the twin route means less sheilding of the spark...

I would agree... Twins are fine but I wouldn't recommend quads. That said, I wouldn't say they weren't any good either

:-/ 4 electrodes, more spark area? spread over 4 electrodes so last longer? So less battling with cable tray? Although are they more expensive.?  :-/

More electrodes, 4 lesser sparks to the centre as opposed to 2 bigger, therefor less ware on the tips no?

AFAIAA (that's the rider  ::)) it don't work like that. You just get one spark between the centre & which ever tip is closest, as they wear away another tip is 'it' until another tip becomes the closest etc etc etc etc. :y
