[QUOTE="holeshot, post: 579741, member: 17202"] This formula may be good for an estimate, but it's not easy to predict how chemicals will mix, so mixed fuels and additives will not necessarily produce a linear scale with regards to octane (i.e. - mixing 5 gals of 95 octane fuel with 5 gals of 105 octane fuel will not likely produce exactly 100 octane fuel). I've worked in the petrochem engineering industry for 25 years, but you could fit all my knowledge of organic chemistry into a thimble. Not all of us are chemists, but sometimes I think guys like like Bclapham are around remind me of my indecisions decades ago (and to torture me) :) Anyway, everyone knows that the lead chemistry lab guy doesn't hang out with the board of directors (unless they ride together). :silly: [/QUOTE]
