Default 308 in a vn........

hey guys,

i just had a offer that im finding very hard to refuse
ive got lpg going on very soon

my mates dad has a 308 with a manual 4 or 5 speed sitting under his house, and he said i could have it for $200, the engines done 250,000km and both are in good condition,

i know ALOT of work would be required to convert this but it'd be running straight gas, which means the computer would still control the fuel usage anyway

now i know the buick's have lots of sensors what would i do about that???
ill have to talk to foam more about it, but ive got the facilities to burn a chip for it and do the engine change

i figure id need
new kframe with engine mounts (older one)
raises suspension at the front??? although i doubt it, got superlows in there at the moment
some fabrication required for the manual shifter
a manual licence
retuned ecu
remove cat converter legally for a bit more bang

since i wont be running petrol i wont need a new pump

and im pretty sure he has the rest under his house
i could get a few dollars back for the v6 as its in good running order and id be selling it with the trans, i also have half of another engine in parts (heads, pushrods, rockers, inlet manifold ect) id give away with it

anyway need opions, anyone think its worth it??
