I wish :) Two different rolling roads/tuners, who are fairly well known with tuning webers, and the answer from both, thats the best your going to get :? Dave Bogs and Motoscope at Northallerton.

:D at idle optimum afr 13.5
at full throttle 13.0
acceleration phase rising to 12.5
and cruise 15.4 for economy on road engine
rover v8 loves to be lean for best perfomance road or race engine same
plug gap very important lol
cheers

that's a lovely looking induction set up there! Good power figures as well, you happy?

What rear axel/diff are you using?
