Hahahaha!!!
Mike, not sure. Howard's doing somewhere around a 60/40 ratio of fuel to alcohol. Last time I checked, mine was 67/33 thereabouts at the end of the tune. Changing the ratio, IMO, throws a monkey wrench into the equation in terms of not only target A/F ratio but also what kind of advance can be run. It'd strike me that with richer alcohol, you can run more advance.

On a street car you're better off just running a pinch, aka AUXILIARY injection..
I have run a lot more like 30%, and in my experience if you are running that much you have something else wrong with your system...
