My new Current LPG set up returns poor fuel economy so it will need to be fine tuned by the LPG technician.
How then would a future great petrol tune affect a prior newly fine tuned LPG setup?

LPG is used for saving money, not for tuning.
First problem is valve and valve seats faster wear: lpg has other thermal charachteristics and if you apply high loads to the engine , it would`t lower the combustion chamber temperature as it may be done on petrol (by making a mixture richer)
It happens so, because the LPG is vaporised before the fuel starts to burn, instead if petrol is used in a rich mixture, a part of it vaporisez during the flare.

If you want to make better effeciency, you can apply ealier spark advance by 4-6 degrees on low rpms till 3000. It is better done on dyno(where these 3-5 % of improvement can be noticed). Other modifications are not effecient
