Ok guys, I was bored today and started looking at my dyno graphs. On my a/f chart with my L/T's, my car starts at about 15, then drops to about 14.2 at its lowest point.
My question is what is a good a/f ratio for our cars?
I know the timing on mine was bumped greatly, so much in fact it sparked knocked a bit so we took it down 2 degree's and its fine. That was way back when I got the gears put in. The same tune has been on my car since then.
What is a safe a/f for our cars guys, if I can have it tuned to squeak out some more power, I could have some dyno time coming up Tues :D
 
This one works finally

This is my baseline which trails down to a level you all are talking about, and yes I know its STD, SAE #'s in sig.

My graph with L/T's (not online) stays pretty much straigh across.

Guess Ill take it in Tues and do a pull and see what it looks like again :shrug:

If it was that bad wouldnt something have went awire by now?
