Sounds like he is talking propane, or possibly butane, but most likley propane. I have toyed with the idea myself, but the largest drawback is the need to run higher compression (12-14:1) due to different characteristics of octane. Propane has lower BTU/gallon than gasoline, thus the higher fuel consumption rate and lower HP output, however the higher compression tends to offset this.

Ya, just make sure you wait an hour between runs for your engine to cool down.
