Someone out west or south plains areas already has one converted I bet to sell you. JD A would be a aftermarket conversion. The MF 85 I'm not so sure but probably a conversion too. Lots of companies made LPG conversions and parts back when butane blends were cheap but now it's all a propane blend and having to go buy it all to convert you aren't going to save anything. As far as all LPG engines having 25% less power that's a bunch BS talk because a engine built and designed properly for LPG will have just as much power if not more than a diesel or gasoline engine. Why do think the tractor pullers are converting them to LPG ? Leave the engine stock compression for gasoline and don't change the rest it may have less power though. You'll need higher compression pistons, special LPG or cooler running manifold, hard seats for the valves to make one run right to notice much difference or to take advantage of it. Google search LPG or propane conversions and will find lots of places that sell kits. There are many brands you might find on some conversions that parts are no longer made for so make sure it has converter regulator you can get parts for yet. Propanecarbs.com
