LP gas is a higher octane than gas. That is why it can use higher compression. It got a little more power out of the higher comp..Factory LP's got more comp. by either piston or head changes. Most used better exaust valves also.
Conversions soon followed because of the no carbon and longer oil and eng life. Also LP was a by-product of the refinery and sold dirt cheap. Another benefit was no one would steal your gas if you left the tractor out in the field.
