By the old octane rating method.

Today's 93 is equivalent to that.
Google will probably have a comparison factored between now and then.

Alcohol mixtures of today aren't doing us any favors though
I respectfully disagree. At least with our California formulas. We have only 91 gasahol, and it is nowhere near adequate for a stock pre-'71 GTO engine. The last stuff we had that mine would run on and not complain much was the 94 octane low lead in the early '80's.
