LPG in a Bay window
Anyone in Sydney had their Kombi converted to LPG. Know it can be done and am aware of a place in Brisbane which has done the conversion.
Looking for a recommendation of a fitter in Sydney up to the job.
Cheers

Thanks for the info guys.
Dub74L have seen Kyra's thread on AVD. and have spoken to fitter that did the conversion. Apparently it's not that straight forward especially if
you have twin carbs which I do. The fitter that did Kyra's job is based in Brisbane.
Really looking for a Sydney fitter who is not only experienced in lpg conversions but is also knows his way around an air cooled engine.
Don't like my chances but you never know someone might turn up.
