i heard if it is running too rich it will burn ring lands. 11 is safe not to burn these. A friend of mine runs a 150 shot on 10.8 A/F ratio.

Theres alot of factors but for 100-200 shot on stock ported heads and good gas 12.2-12.4 is safe. stay out of the 10's

Your friend should be fine at that a/f - he could actually go to the mid 11's as Todd noted. 150 shot you want to worry more about going lean. I have never seen a car lift ring lands with a 150 shot but I have seen melted tips on plugs. Yes if you are running a 300 or 400 shot then all bets are off but most people are not running that size shot.

I shoot for a 11.8 on aversage size shots. When I get to the larger shots such as 250 pluss I shoot for 11.5

My 150 tune takes me from 12.5 on motor to 11.5 all the way down the track with the hose flowing...plugs look good, runs like a champ, pretty good gains on the track also.
