I completely agree with everything you've said, striker - and in fact, the porsche in question wasn't running LPG, it was petrol 102RON, but i gave that (possibly flawed) example to demonstrate the higher power available with the higher knock resistance of the fuel.
A better example is lotus, who converted their exige to run on E85 bioethanol. http://www.pistonheads.com/lotus/default.asp?storyId=14861
Again, its not the calorific value which is important here, its the knock resistance...
Cheers, Paul.
