The Gasifier Experimenters Kit (GEK) is a device that converts biomass to syngas. Many automobiles have been build that quickly switch between using syngas for fuel and using gasoline for fuel. Some people are experimenting with a variety of biomass sources; woodchips (to make wood gas), corn husks, peanut shells, chicken manure, etc.
They post the results of their experiments at the GEK Wiki.
