Robert,

I'm not sure what type of engine you have, but an option might be to modify it 
to use ethanol and then delay the timing to get higher compression.  That may 
result in a more efficient system.  You would have to have a supply of ethanol 
though and you may not be able to delay the timing if its a magneto style 
engine (can one delay timing on a magneto?)

You could buy the horse and feed it the cornstalks and compute your milage 
based on that!
