Oh yea, and I understand him. 

I may play with tuning a little over the weekend and early next week but I'm spending most of my weekend packing my dive gear for next weekend.  I'm doing the opposite of "Cheers".  I'm going where no body knows my name, as a matter of fact, I don't even speak their language.

OK, I got off topic.  As for tuning, I may put a few more rpm into it but then I'm going to start looking at timing.  I'm already past the rpm with the highest timing.  I'm seeing the timing drop from 20 deg down to 18 just prior to the shift.  I'm thinking that I can get by with around 24 degrees at the higher rpms.  M1?  (of course I will keep a close eye on the logs for KR when I start adding timing.

I've only seen KR once in one log and I think that was burst KR.  It was only 1 degree and at a low rpm as I was easing into the throttle.

I'll have to look at some of my logs and/or tunes at home and get back to you.

Edit - what octane fuel are you thinking of running in that thing???

I'm tuning it for 87.  It will be interesting to see what it does on 105 octane E85 if I add some timing to it.  I'm pretty sure that they run off of the same timing table.  The fuel tables are drastically different.

I presume it has to be able to accommodate filling up one week with E85 and the next with gas, etc. so that it has to be able to operate in between.

Yea, for example there are 2 PE tables. one gas, and one alcohol and a percentage table to chose where to go to on mixed fuel.  I hope my leaning out the gas table won't run it too lean on mixtures.  I assume they use the same level of conservatism on the alky tables.  We'll see.  I don't even have a clue as to what AFR makes the most power with alky.  I know that gas likes about 12.5/1 for max power.  Stoich for 100% alky is about 9.7/1.  I would guess that max power would be around 8/1.

Sorry for not getting around to this over the weekend.  It was not a normal weekend.  Amber witnessed her father having a heart attack on Saturday.  She thought he had died.  He's doing fairly well now.

Wow, sorry to hear about the family health issues.  I didn't even open my tune this weekend.  Unless work slows down, I may not touch it until I get back from vacation.
