Is this valve convertible or not?

I'm looking to replace the gas valve in an old heater. I think we've got it narrowed down to the Robertshaw 710 series. This manual valve says it's convertible, but when I checkout the conversion kit it says hydraulic valves are not convertible. Any idea which it really is? Thank you for your time.

    @mattmia2 this is related to my old furnace discontinued valve post.

    does the old valve have a built in regulator?

    I don't have any idea, it's 60yrs old and there's not much info on it. I was trying not to go too far off topic in the other thread. Admittedly not great at forum communication.

    I does however not look like it has an external added on regulator. The trailer has the standard lp regulator near the bottles, however I suspect they are different.
