Propane

Does anyone know if its bad for the engine to have propane running through it? I herd it was not so good for 24V engines. Is there any truth to that? and is anyone doing it on a 3rd gen?

I believe you'll run a little hotter. It should give a ton of power and fuel efficiency though (not when producing tons of power). I don't know about 3rd gens or anything bad about it. Maybe run propane and water/meth?

water/meth is a system that you may buy for maybe $400-$600 (depending on the stage) that injects a small amount of water and methanol into your intake. I guess it cools your truck with the water and the methanol (and coolness maybe) gives you a ton of power.
