: My dad was a farmer and he used a lot of equipment on propane,
: and I had a 47 IH 1/2 ton that I converted to propane using a carbeurator from an old LA Case tractor.

: I had to modify the mounting holes, but other than that It is as easy as pie.

: just find a carb and vaporizor/regulator assy. from an old 1940's or 50's tractor (all the carbs and regs. are usually the same)...


: BLACKSTONE MFG CO.
