With a little research I came up with the following numbers.
Hydrogen is 980.6 BTU/Lb.
Gasoline is 125,000 BTU/Lb.
It will take 127.5 gallons of liquid hydrogen to equal 1 gallon of gas.
If you try to generate hydrogen from water you  need 14.13 gallons of water to 
get 1 gallon of Hydrogen.
To get the same amount of energy from 1 gallon of gas you would need to convert 
1801 gallons of water to Hydrogen.

How far did you say Shasta was from your house?

The  hydrogen gas generator is installed in Mr. Hyde in a very temporary
manner  until I know whether or not the system meets my expectations or not.
If the  system works as advertised I will design a proper management system
and  install it in place of the manual power control I am current using.   I
am looking forward to seeing what happens on the way South to  Shasta.  I
will be interested in seeing how Keith's exhaust gas  measurements will read
the output of the exhaust.  Pictures on the  TECH pages of  datsun2000.com.,

next couple of days.

I'll be there. Looking forward to checking it out. I suspect I know how it  
will turn out but I'll keep an open mind.
