Hi guys!....As far as I know all the large diesel makers have a NG option from the factory. Problem is they produce less power in the same engine compared to diesel. I thought i read that Westport injects the gas at 3000psi?? Don't quote me on this but at that pressure the gas could be liquid state. Guess a call to the company could confirm that. Current technology has the gas enter the cylinder at very low psi...gas form. Not as much energy...Hope this helps.......raisin
