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

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.
