Hello Paul,
40% BSFC does seem like way too much improvement!  My "old" memory is not what I wish.  Could it have been 40 mpg?  A std Fiero ( or was it a Chevette?)was probably about 25 - 30 mpg at that time. Experimenters and engineers still believe there is much more energy in gasoline than we are using by simple atomization.  If the liquid is recracked until it wil not go back to the liquid state, how much more energy would be available?  One retired engineer was convinced this is what the Pogue carburator did when "boiling" liquid gas @ 1200 degree F in the presence of iron.  Claims are now so old experimenting would be like the progress of turbocompounding - slow and expensive.
