The grapevine suggested that the Zetec engine did not take kindly to
running on gas a few years ago.

Could be worth a quick google.

I am fairly sure that at one time or another club members have had
lpg conversions done on saloon/coupe, 2+2 and H4 's
The price you quote seems to accord with other offers I have seen in
the past.
Unless you are advised otherwise by members with actual experience I
think that the best way of estimating the saving is to assume that the
fuel consumption on gas will increase by 10% eg 40 mpg on petrol
equals 36 mpg on gas then do your pricing eg 4.5 litres lpg at 80
p.per litre = 360 p or 10p per mile
If you have good sources of supply local to year and most of your
driving is within a small radius you might find it worthwhile to use a
small lpg tank and to rely on petrol for long journeys where lpg might
be harder to find. On the other hand if the source of lpg is
inconvenient or distant the use of the largest lpg tank would be
favourite.
The converter should supply with an insurance certificate on the
installation but it might be wise to check with the insurer you use
for the H4 to make sure that they are happy about the possibility of a
conversion.
It might also be worth asking other uses of lpg to see if they have
found that it takes longer to refuel with lpg or whether they often
have to wait in line for the lpg 'pump' on forecourts.
