Oh yeah, I know it is a good one. I just couldn't see why it was special.
I've "asked the seller" why it is special. Jaymic have a website with systems etc and are approved, so I want to know if they are honest enough to say, "prossibly works but we haven't ever installed it" which is a safe answer business wise, for them, or whether they make up some kind of bullshit.

yes, yer probably right. However, I there are certain myths around the subject of LPG which have to be challenged - like the ones about "it won't tart from cold on LPG", for example.
The V8 I just got running here was working quite credibly with no air cleaner attached, just an open intake; now, I wasn't actually using it seriously but there are some who would claim that you can't do it at all.
BTW, while on the subject, have you got a source of anti-backfire thingies of suitable size for the V8? I'll be putting the flapper AFM back on this one in due course (along with the rest of the injection system), and an opener on it, but I prefer the belt-and-braces approach :-). No huge rush, I've a good bit of work to do on the project before it becomes critical. But the transit (2-litre pinto) body brings with it a petrol tank, so would be handy to resurrect the petrol system.
Oh, and another related point... do any of the V8 variants have an external (rather than in-tank) fuel pump? Obviously, the transit doesn't have the right pump to feed the flapper injection system.

Flap opener makes sense to me, I have to say - I presume once the flap's open the risk to the AFM in the event of a backfire is reduced anyway - plus you fit the pressure relief thing too. Hotwire AFMs seem to survive backfires, all it did on mine is to bugger the gauze thing, and that seems to serve little purpose anyway so I lobbed it.
