Default LPG conversion

I was wondering if anyone knows whether the 2.3 engine in a 1989 240DL is a suitable candidate for conversion to duel fuel. I have a V70 at the moment with duel fuel. It can run on LPG or petrol and is, to my mind, quite a good system. It makes the cost of running it lower and can be easily switched between the two whilst driving with virtually no noticeable change over. Just wondering if an older engine like that found in the 240DL is suitable for such a conversion. One garage I rang said something about the fact that it may not have 4 injectors and would make the conversion more difficult and not be as efficient. Not being technically minded this is all a mystery to me so thought I'd throw it out in case anyone else knows. Thanks in advance.
