The general use of fuel blending beginning with "Motor Fuels" by Leslie (1929) has been to increase power output by increasing compression ratio. Racing engines and piston aircraft are the most notable applications. One can do amazing things under the lawful conditions. To get a 20% increase in fuel efficiency typically one either has corrected a gross defect or doubled the compression ratio. .
you realize you cant sound this sane, rational and logical and post on this topic..
