Of course it is not the same document, as said it's from the 1st edition. If you read the preface of the 2nd edition you will notice that it has been "revised and rearranged in convenient order and grouping". That's why they are not comparable.
This is the whole page where the 100 octane limitation was taken from.

I'm sorry, I do not intend to provide a whole digital copy, it's a very rare item. Not sure if The National Archives has one and I've never seen it somewhere else. You can PM me if you have something pleasurable to offer as an exchange.
