   Wel at leasr MICH Longer. Tehre is a smal proce though and that is a   
   small reduction in engien Horsepower becasue of the Lower BTU per unit   
   of Natural gas as compaired to Gasoline. This downside  can be made   
   up by Raising the compression ratio of the engine and changes in the   
   spark advance becasue of the Higher Octaine Rating, about 130 for   
   Natural Gas, as compaired to Gasoline. In fact the producvtion Natural   
   Gas Honda engine Horsepower in Higher than the Gasoline engined one.   
   With no engine modifications you get an about 10% power reduction.
