If this is all correct then I should be running about 19.7 gph.  The
problem here is that the tanks would then be empty upon arrival to
Dayton (not a good thing).  It does certainly suggest that I have quite
a wide range to work with however.

BTW, the cubes vs compression discussion was pallatable for this bear of
a wee little brain.  In short, it does change but it's negligible
compared to the power increase attained.
