What's fascinating to me is that the price per unit energy is actually pretty close right now. All else equal, propane is probably a superior fuel. To my understanding it burns cleaner, and if an engine is designed to run on it specifically (higher compression, geometry optimized for faster burn) it would be more efficient. But, I don't see it being a game changer for an engine retrofitted for it.
