Interesting...so eliminate the diesel fuel altogether or use the propane as an additive? I might consider something like that on my resto-mod.

Propane as an additive. Most people just do propane injection. Water/methanol injection is also an option of you're looking to hot rod a diesel.

Excellent, I have a 1955 International tow truck and a 1999 type II Ford. I'm thinking of taking the drive train our of the ambulance and putting it into the tow truck. 7.3 litre International Diesel in the tow truck might be kinda cool.

Sounds like a fun project. The 7.3 is a good engine. It gets pretty costly to push it much past 500 ponies though because of the HEUI injection system.

I used to have an '77 chevy ambulance with a 454 under the hood. One time I was in a gas station lot and as we were leaving I noticed the light was green. My route had me turn right out of the parking lot, then an immediate left at the intersection. Without realising the power I had under the hood I floored the pedal to make the light and layed a rubber patch around both corners.

Whoops. :) I aways wanted to fix that one up with mags and side pipes. lol.
