You'd consume 25%-30% more propane to achieve the same level of energy gasoline has, so the price difference would be minimal.And I'd think the price to convert would be pretty hefty as well.

In reality, unless your building a engine/fuel system from scratch, alcohols are the only cost effective alternative to gas.
