Hi Tom,
I pulled my number from the NA Combustion Handbook that you recommended many moons ago. There is a bunch more data on various 'syngas' flame speeds in this paper.

Dear Alex and all

Several years ago I a spent year or so measuring flame speeds of combustion for 
various gasolines, and reading about them.  My memory is that CO HAD THE 
SLOWEST FLAME SPEED OF ALL, O.2 ft/sec; almost all other gases WERE 0.5 ft/sec; 
and hydrogen (and probably acetylene) were 5 ft/sec. This is my memory, but I 
might be off.
