  Usually about 2.500.- EU if it's done professionally, but then you 
only have a 55 liter tank or so. A lot of V8 are running on LPG in 
Germany (unfortunately not in Austria, 'cause we've hardly any LPG fuel 
stations, but that will come sooner or later). It requires you to have 
the tank (usually in the spare wheel recess), the pipes, the filler 
plug, an ECU sensing the Motronic's inject signals directly at the 
wiring harness, the injectors, the pipes to the injectors, one or two 
carburetors, a modified intake manifold - well, that's it pretty much!

The effect is that you pay less than half the price per liter and have a 
slightly less MPG, between 10 and 20%, depending on how good the thing 
is running.
