    Isn't that how most STCs work?  The owner of the STC issues the STC
  doc for a specific airplane by serial number. If I buy an STCed
  product, it's only good for the serial number of the plane I purchased
  it for.   I've never heard of STC holders issuing new STC doc for
  free, if you moved the product to another airplane.  I'd think the
  autogas STC folks would probably go broke if you could transfer the
  STC without their permission.

 Such an odd system.  I would think that is safety were the primary concern
 it would work by precedent, i.e., once someone demonstrated that a certain
 installation of product X in aircraft type Y was safe and effective that
 from that point on it would be up to the A&P and/or avionics tech to make
 sure the procedure was properly adhered to.
That would be fine if it wasn't so expensive to demonstrate to the FAA that
it is a safe mod.
