Convert generator to LPG

We are running on generators since Katrina visited. Gasoline is hard to come by. How difficult is it to convert a gas generator to LPG? It's a small 5KW unit with a 10hp Briggs engine. We have plenty of propane.
Thanks!

I too have been toying with this idea as a project, and here is a sight I found. Sounds pretty simple for a couple-a-hundred bucks.

Please post if you find out any more info.
