    You'd have to stay very conservative in terms of boost. The L67 has a bottom end specifically built for this purpose, not to mention a low comp ratio.

    Mate I just charged my ecotec with a yella terra m90.

    I know its not a 5l but its duel fuel.
    It works great on both petty and gas.
    Its been tuned on gas and tuned to run 98.

    Biggest down side I found is the restriction the gas mixer ring has a tiny hole and
    really restricts air flow into the engine.

    Install wise it took a mate and myself 2days to complete the install.
    That was with changing head gaskets also.

    Runs brilliant!!!! Only a couple small bugs to sort out.
    Need longer pushrods and tossing up about extractors.

    Overall though, if your mechanically minded go for it!!!
    Just get it tuned when its all done.

    Any other questions shoot,
    I'll help if i can.

    Send a pm if u want.
    I haven't been to the drags but its been on a dyno, however it hasn't gone in for a final tune yet.
    So i can't tell you what its made yet.

    If u plan to keep the car for a while i recomend doing it!
    I've had mine for almost 5 yrs and will probly keep ot for another 5.
    I'd love a new car but we've got better things to save for at the moment than a new car.
