Will the typical WOT target still apply with E10?

My wideband is calibrated for a stoich of 14.1.
Will my starting point, say 12.0:1, be rich enough with E10?
Or, if the wideband is adjusted for E10 will the typical 12.5-13.0 still be the likely afr the engine wants per the guage?
I think what throws me off is the new stoich. Going to lambda...trying to wrap my mind around something unfamiliar, would the lambda be the same for the two best power afr's with e10 and pure gasoline?

my understanding is lambda is stoich for any given fuel. that means that .85-.87 lambda would be a good starting point for wot. i'm just learning to tune and made the choice to use lambda for that reason( different fuel types)

I need a gauge for that

Ive found 14.42 to work quite well for e10, but it varies by region and time of year. If you want to see where stoich is with any fuel on a gas scale....go drive around with fuel trims on and look at the wideband. The narrowband o2s always force fueling to lambda=1, no matter the fuel. For gasoline lambda=1 is about 14.67 on a gas scale (ie, a wideband calibrated for gasoline), for e10 around 14.42, for e85, around 9.3, etc.
