Default Which fuel for standalone

I'm fixing to start spraying my car again and I was just wondering what some of you guys have had great success with for fuel in your stand alone setups? What kind of characteristics do they have as far as jetting? Like running richer than pump gas or anything like that

As long as its just a leaded race fuel the tune up should not change too much on fuel trims.

c16 is solid fuel to use.

Most run C16, but I use Klotz 118 because it's available locally.

c16 seems to be the popular one so I think I'll go with that one. Gonna head to the the place that sells racing fuel tomorrow and see what's available and I guess I'll just start out with the standard manufacturer recommended jets and go from there. Thanks for the help
