Default mixing 93 + 100 Octane

Can I mix 5 gallons of 93 and 5 gallons of 100 and end up with 96.50?, or is the mixing non linear? I am trying to end up with 95.

TIA,

Robin
:cheers:

I used to mix 93 unleaded with 104 unleaded. I believe the octane result is linear, if both gases are unleaded in this case.

yes you are correct you can use that formula we mix 94 and 110 and shoot for 100-102 octane here :cheers:
