Would you 175 it on pump gas I can only usually get 91 octane out here. Keep in mind the elevation is ~6,000ft.
However, I've been running 150 for a while, on the stock pump even. I have a Walbro ready to go in.
When I get a solid clutch in it I'm thinking about upping it 175 since the fuel jet is the same and my kit is way fat right now.
I figure I'll throw it on the dyno and up it to 175 to lean it out a little, and if it's still too fat then I'll start working the fuel jet down.
Who has ran 175 on pump gas? Dont want to be stuck mixing race gas or anything.
Currently pulling 6 degrees for the 150 but figured I would up that to 9 as I started leaning out the jetting a little and start watching the plugs.
Thoughts?

There have been a few to have good luck with a 175 shot but with a 255lph or walbro340....i would mod the fuel rail w/ AN fittings etc. to get a more equal fuel distribution at the rails.
Personally, i would not go more than 150 unless it was a N2O outlet plate kit
