Up until the early '90s propane was less than half the price of gasoline in my area. Then the Fed passed a "BTU equivalency tax" which made it briefly the same price as premium gasoline, then it became almost twice as expensive, for no reason I ever discovered. In recent years it has come down quite a bit, but it's still more expensive than Diesel, plus the problems getting refills.
Propane conversions were quite popular in Canada and Australia last time I looked (a few years ago) since propane was noticeably cheaper than gasoline. Some of the Aussies were selling kits for EFI cars that metered liquid propane through the stock fuel injectors instead of requiring an evaporator hat.
The guy I worked with that had the propane converted V10 had a setup with an extra injector for each cylinder. We didn't talk too much about how it all worked though, I don't think he was real big on the technical details.
