Using road and laboratory antiknock data obtained on 91 commercial premium gasolines in five 1957 test cars and 16 prototype fuels in three high compression ratio cars, equations are developed which permit calculation of road octane number from knowledge of various combinations of laboratory qualities; relative importance of each laboratory variable in enhancing prediction equation.
