Re: Gasoline grade BTUs per gallon?

BW:
Higher grade gasoline has about the same energy content, it just
allows a bit more efficiency from the engine.
=======================================
Can you quantify this somehow? To me efficiency is power out/power in.
If the power in is the same, how does it increase the power out?
