g'day all,

Just curious on the best LPG setup for an EF I6 Manual?
Tickford type?

I'd like to retain the stock inlet and run pipe simular to the AU types...
please tell me the best type for performance and or reliablity eg No backfiring etc!
cheers

go with the tickford type. reason is, I haven't encountered any backfire yet {factory fitter by Tickford} not only they're reliable they're real torquey I think more then petrol anyway.
