hard to say. if you have a stock fuel pump, you might be maxxing it out with your setup. i think 500rwhp or so is all they can take and with a H/C motor and spray, it is very easy to get more then that. have you changed your fuel filter lately? maybe it is that simple.

FWIW I always independantly verify my A/F with a wideband to pick the fuel jet, regardless of what the vendor recommends.. They provide a jet map to match a basically stock vehicle, and they can't really predict all the variables.

i have a walbro 340 in it. it has a lean spike of 14:1 at 4500 rpm then levels out to 12.8:1 all the way to 6500 rpm. is that normal. i really doubt i am running out of fuel since i am at 4200 feet above sea level.
