12.5-13.0 a/f

But I read plugs.
I am at a 3:1 ratio. fuel injected spread is almost 52.Plate kit

Every setup is different though

you dont measure...it is a caulcation......we run most of our stuff in the high 6 to mid 7 range on bigger motors....450+ CI...but for the smaller motors seems to run better a litte fatter........high 5 to 6....just wanting to get a feel for other motors and what peopleare running......

to figure you need bottle pressure, fuel pressure and jet sizes.......

the more I look at that app, it really is for people just starting out.....there is no way to account for the different fuel....
