dude, you are a wealth of information! i'm doing alot of reseach atm while i build up my bank, then i'll tackle the carb, tranny(seals), clutch and exhuast leak at one time. after that i'm going to revaluate where im at powerwise and if im still not happy, start researching very heavily in regards to the stage 1 camshaft kit and master rebuild kits. so bear with me and my (dumb) questions. lol.
as for the carbs, which one is better? the 32/36 or the 38/38?

hahah, im sure the amount of $$ for a propane conversion kit would exceed what it would cost to get a reasonable amount of power via aftermarket parts.

Neither is really 'better' than the other, they just have different uses. The 32/36 is a good stock replacement or mild mods carburetor. From what I hear, it gets pretty decent gas mileage with an increase in power over stock. The 38/38 is typically used in engines that can support a higher flow rate, which is why this carb is good on engines that have aggressive cams, ported heads, OS valves, and a free flowing exhaust. The 38 is also the carb that comes with the LCE supercharger kit. From my experiences with the 38, it makes good power, but dont expect anything good for gas mileage, I get about the same as my friends Yukon with a 350.
For your engine I would probably recommend the 32/36 unless you have some head work done to allow better flow at higher rpms.

I'm now putting a Comp Cam in my 85 p'up with 22r, getting it back together now, cant wait to see what it'll do. I got a mild cam part # 87-123-4. Nothing else has to be altered to do that. Was going in to do valve seals and the next I know, wellllll, I'll put a cam in it while im in there, ya know how that goes! Let ya know in a couple days how it does.

Just put a mild comp cam in on my 85 22r and seen a good increase in power at higher rpm. Got a hooker header going to be installed this week with a high flow cat. With running 33 thornbirds, everybit can help me get out of third gear up hills!

He has stock gears, with stock sized tires. If you re-gear (4:88 will make for the same gearing as stock with 33" tires) you will pick up a big performance gain. You probably won't be as quick as your friends, due to the large rotational weight of the bigger tires, but it helps a ton. I went from 3:90's (PO grenaded the rear diff, and grabbed one out of an earlier truck)to 4:88's and it's night and day.

This is pretty good info. I am trying to determine which carb is on my 4runner and I found this online:
