Have you tried decreasing the high speed air bleeds? I have no idea how much (or little) can be gained there or if it's super relative... Maybe get some comparable data from those that have one that's working well. Or convert it to EFI and be done with it

My HS's are small already .018 front ,013 back .

I remember back when i was tuning with 91 . I was having a rich problem with my original older 1050 . I couldn't get it lean enough in the mid range. So i changed over to this newer one im using now which got me to the AFR i was looking for. So im thinking of setting up the old one for e85 and see if i can get it richer . Maybe there's something wrong with this newer one im using now..

Im not at the point to go EFI . I want to get it working with the carburetor.. EFI is nice to have . Its nice being able to log ..

I made them small just to jump on the extreme side because everything i was trying wasn't resulting into any positive change . So i just left them there . I usually have them between .024 - .026 . So basically i was experimenting . I was surprised when nothing changed..
