I think you can buy a kit but I just drilled a 5/16 hole in the airbox below the carb throat and epoxied a 5/16 maple connector(line hook) in the hole. I then bought some 5/16 fuel line and connected it from there to a ball valve then to a gas grill regulator. I start the motor on gas then shut the gas off and get ready to turn on the propane as the bowl drains. Its kind of a PITA at first because you can easily flood the thing with propane. It takes just a crack of the ball valve but once you figure it out there's nothing to it. It'll run until you shut it off or drain the tank. I've done the same with a Honda motor but the predator engines use much less fuel. I put out a couple of 100lb tanks and have the gas truck stop by and fill them when needed.
