Just add 87+91= 178 Divided by 2 = 89

5 Gal of 87 and 5 gal of 91 would still be 89 proof..

I know, but the magazine article was saying that it resulted in a higher octane rating. It was a race team that raced Corvettes and they were saying that this would result in a higher rating. They gave some reasons but I just did it. Couldn't tell a difference. So math rules and they were probably wrong.
