We were lucky enough to score a pre-converted car with low mileage for a low price, but the original owner paid $5250 for the installation in WA.

We paid $3400 (special introductory price) for the Orbital system less $1750 rebate = $1650 net.

The Orbital systems are selling for $4500-$5000 now which is only slightly less than the (superior) JTG system.

I know its ridiculous but one thing that has always turned me off gas is the god awful aesthetics.

Liquid injection systems are by far the neatest systems under the bonnet because there are no unsightly radiator hoses or vaporising regulators involved.

Photos thanks to my friend, blownba.

Yeah that's not too bad, what's the hoses running over the manifold?
Heater hoses? (LS1 has them running along the chassis rail is the only reason I ask.)

Is it possible to say, buy an aftermarket manifold and use the original bosses instead of taping new bosses into the OEM manifold?
Or do you have to run duel fuel?

They're not part of the gas system.

In order to comply with Australian regulations, you HAVE to run dual fuel with any Liquid Injection system. There is currently no way around this and even Ford / Orbital are having problems getting a single-fuel Falcon LPI to work.
