I know that the accel pump dumps a bunch of fuel when you jump the slides...AEM (the AFR Gauge) guy tells me that the meter will peg from whatever side of 14.7 it's on...I'm assuming that I peg rich...and as I stay in the throttle (we're talking full accel here)...that the gauge read at 15.6 up to 16.2...means that my part throttle/full load mix is too lean...

I'm not unhappy with the porting that was done on the head...it sure sounds like it's breathing as best it can...my thought is ...Where am I in relation to needle opening...I mean I'm fine from zero to 1/4 throttle...I'm fine on full main...how do I shape the needle to get my AFR read under 14 from 1/4 thru to full main.

If I had an EMS you could program the curve...the needle is OUR EMS...

I've isolated slide stops from existing throttle stop...it requires running the slide stops within a 1/2 turn from full extension to maintain the idle at 1K...but the incosistency of existing throttle linkage is eliminated. I've bought larger pilot jets from Sudco...but am hoping raising the needles will correct the idle enough so I can lower the slide stops.
