Ed - I know 14.7 is technically ideal, but what would a good range be for a Q-jet SBC stocker?

Paul, 14.7-1 is not for wide open power. That is the target A/F ratio for computer controlled cars with cats. That is where the cats are most efficient in most cases. That is for idle and cruise, not WOT.

Most everything I ever worked with has liked between 12.5-1 and 13.2-1. Some depends on the fuel also. C11 likes a little richer. My car likes 12.8-1 with C11. Your results may vary. LOL
