As I said - V8 on gas. Best of both worlds. Unless you live in Qld and pay rego proportionately to the number of cylinders you have.

That is good idea, but doesn't gas kill a lot of the power?

No difference at all in power. Has to be gas injection though, not the ring type.

No loss in power??
A taxi driver driving a gas falcon told me it gives not as much power and I also read somewhere on internet the same thing.
Well if powers all the same then that's fantastic.

A Falcon's not a V8 Jeep. ALso, it runs the venturi, which is like spraying fuel (gas) into a tube and hoping for the best. Injected ones are properly measured. No different than petrol.

Fair enough. I just assumed all Gas was the same no matter what car it was on.
I know nothing about gas, I admit that.
