I am sorry to be another offering no information about your conversion, but I had a propane powered generator and it was a terrible mistake to have not put in a generator that ran on the same fuel source as the coach. Your gas generator has a 90-100 gallon tank of fuel to run off of allowing for few concerns about needing to refuel often. Should you change to propane you are also going to need to find a location to mount a 100# propane tank as you will burn through propane pretty quickly. On a very hot weekend in Virgina we were dry camping and the generator had to run 24 hours a day and we had to refuel fuel before the weekend was over. That would never have been an issue if I had been using my 100 gallon fuel tank. Propane is also generally more expensive than gas and it derates your genset by about 500 points (5000 would not be rated 4500).
