I am very well aware of any hazards of this. I am a master Auto ASE w/ L1, Mater Heavy Truck W/ L2, and have all the ALT fuels certs from ASE. I am asking for opinionsa on this because of the lack of options. I do not think mounting it underneath or on the back is the safest, on top would be disasterous in the event of a roll over. If you have a better Idea please speak up, otherwise do not assume I do not know what I am doing. Yesterday was the 15th anniversary of me working on vehicles for a living, it's all i've ever done, don't know how to do much of anything else.

Facts on Propane
108 octane
Never spills like gasoline.
Will run upside down.

Here is a company that specialises in doing these conversions.

I know you are not supposed to run it inside the vehicle, but as of lack of choice I think this may be the best option. SUV's have a disadvantage.
