Default LP injection on gas motor for primary fuel?

I just watched HOT ROD TV and they covered the build of Mothers Pro-Pain Chevelle. What is interesting is they finished it before HRPT 07', unveiled it drove it, and decided to re-tool it. It was originally LPG powered, they changed it to LP injection. They stated it makes more power because it creates boost before injection with no mechanical means (ie turbo/supercharger) and is colder when injected? So, my question, I've seached and haven't found any definite venders for conversions to LP Injection. I'd just like to research and learn more, maybe that could be a future swap way down the road. Thanks.

I believe I remember hearing that with LP you can get a larger gain because it is very resistant to pre-ignition and you can run crazy high compression.
