Re: LPG refills???
depends on where you are, where you buy from. btw you want a bigger tank, trust me. i ran a 10 gal forklift tank on a turbo 2.3 ranger and was always running out, almost on a weekly basis.
last year i paid $30 to fill it at most places (i.e. farm supply place, welding supply place,) you dont want to have to go to an RV place, they gouge the ---- out of lpg there. i had no choice one time and paid $65 for a fill at a campground.

Re: LPG refills???
its pretty simple, and i 
rigged most of it on the cheap. i used some copper tubing i had laying around, some fittings, a forklift tank that i ....uhh acquired.., i got a mixer and heater off ebay. the mixer was fit for a square bore carb, and i got and adapter that adapted the square bore to the lower intake of the 2.3 (very very similar, holes were mm's off). i ran it hot air, with exhaust pipe for the charge pipe into a homemade airbox made from a big folgers can, a butchered 4bbl air cleaner and a few tubes of jb weld.
there is a vacuum/boost reference port on the mixer, just make sure you reference it or it wont run for ----.
and we were running 20ish psi on lpg on a 2.3 turbo with a n/a head, turbo cam, and pulled no timing. never pinged or had an argument until it spit the stock replacement h/g.
