What happened to Propane
What killed the idea of Propane injection?
Why is Alky better? Have the two ever been compared? was there ever a decent controller developed? surely the technology is there. I can't help but wonder what the potential of propane actually is. I know there are kits out there but they are older technology. What are your thoughts? is using a gas with supercooling properties not worth exploring?

Last thing I remember was that the controllers weren't up to the vendors standard and eventually the cost/results/maintenance lead everyone to alky.
I think a few guys were even doing both alky and propane, damn.
