You can actually get into more trouble running rich because you're more likely to run into pre-ignition. I'm going to keep it right in the middle to start and run 12.1:1. I should have enough flow out of my injectors to hit the 365HP at about 60psi of base fuel pressure, which gives me plenty of wiggle-room with the second fuel pump.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
12.1:1 A/F? It will be interesting to see how this goes, as 9:1 is the usual E85 A/F ratio, with rich at about 7:1.
