Will this blend stay under the 750 specific gravity fuel test?

I have done some reading on this and it looks to me that the nly way to really know is to check it. I haven"t found a way to check it yet, but I am sure there is some type of kit out there, just haven"t found it yet.
On www.e85fuel.com there is a table listed with fuel specs. It has specific gravity listed at 60/65F.
100% Methanol = 796
100% Ethanol = 794
87 Octane Gas = 720-780 (why the range I don"t know)
E85 = 780
I have tried to find out more on why the gas has a range and have not found anything yet. However, it looks to me that E10 would be pushing the 750 mark..
I found a lot on racing fuel specific gravity at www.vpracingfuels.com, but it doesn"t make a lot of since to me, as almost all of there fuels are closer to 700 than 750, with very few over 750. I guess there is more to learn on specific gravitys of fuels.
Any way, to answer your question, it would be close but best to be safe and have it checked.
