X2 on that question for me, no one really gives good answers about propane in the 6.2. I mostly hear don't do it. anyone ever run propane in a 6.2?

I used it on my 6.5 when I wasn't getting boost because of a bad boost control solenoid. It gives around a 35% increase in power, so you should get 40 or 50 more hp. My daughter took it on a trip while that solenoid was bad and was able to get 30 mpg on diesel, so it was able to give more than a 50% increase in mileage. You can't throw alot of propane at it because of detonation since it is indirect injection, but it should help both mileage and power.

yeah im not looking for anything crazy, although i will be turbocharging my truck also so im sure that makes a big difference as to how little propane i can run, im not looking for HUGE hp changes just better 20+ miles per gallon would be nice
