For the most part....No.
On some engines that do not have hardened valve seats in the cylinder head LPG can be a little harsh on them and lead to whats known as valve seat recession. On the few vehicles that we know this to be an issue we fit an upper cylinder lubrication system along with the conversion and this eliminates this from hapenning. Apart from that LPG will actually be better for your engine and can make it last longer as it is a clean burning fuel with no left over hydrocarbons/unburnt fuel, which can damage catalytic converters and foul up engine intake including valves, combustion chamber and exhaust system. The engine oil is kept much cleaner due to no unburnt fuel blowing past the piston rings and entering the oil system. This dilutes oil making it break down quicker and less effective in lubricating the engine and turns it black quicker due to carbon contamination.
Generally your engine will also run smoother and quieter on LPG and perform better when taking off and in start/stop driving situations due to improved low down torque and smoother torque curve.
