I bought a 1996 Chevy Silverado one ton crew cab that had the 7.4 Vortec and a propane dual fuel conversion with a 115 gallon tank in the bed. I also had a 1988 Southwind motorhome that was a 454 with dual fuel propane and unlead. The motorhome worked well but when I sold it the next owner burned it to the ground by trying to run the house propane loads off the unregulated extra tank for the motor. I can only assume he turned the 18,000 but furnace into something much bigger. The 1996 never ran right, I finally found a flat lobe on an exhaust valve but had removed all the propane stuff before finally figuring out the issue. I don't know how that truck would have ran on propane but I still have all the parts for future possibilities.
