Good idea. Only problem is it won't work. Getting extra fuel into an engine is easy. Making that engine pump more air to burn the extra fuel is the trick. 60HP??? I assume your buddy has the printout from the dynometer to prove this? If the gasoline metering system was terribly out of whack but the LP system calibrated bang on.

Or a gasser with NO2 injection along with the LP injection. Say, you are not mixing up NO2 injection with LP injection are you? A while back we had a genius figure out he could couple the shafts of a generator and motor together. Then feed the motor from the generator. And use the surplus power to run his house. He was all set to patient the idea to power companies. There seem to be a lot of people around who didn’t take basic science and physics in high school.
