Octane rating propane / butane
Posted: Mon Jul 18, 2022 4:18 pm
What is the octane rating for propane and butane?
We have a summer mix overhere 40% propane an 60 % butane In winter it is 60% propane 40% butane.
And how do I convert this to the US fuel rating?
Building a supercharged 6/71 454 and try to figure out what the max boost can be with the 7.3 compresion ratio that I have,
On us pump gas what they call 92 that is about 97 here in Europe The rule is do not go over 12.4 final comresion.
Will use a intercooler between the SC an intake, hope that I can get into the high 14S final compresion.
Have all the good go fast parts. Aloy heads forged crank and pistons H bean rods 4bold mains . etc
Thanks
