Stoich is 14.7:1? Cold enrichment can be as much as something like 8:1
or 6:1 from what I have been able to find - which is not much.

What pulse width difference are you looking at for MAP?
I figured about 50Ms for full power (1.5")at 4800 RPM, +/-and about .025
for idle 15" vacuum- this for a 4 cyl with batch fired X2 setup. Cold
enrich at idle could be as high as .050.

Interested in seeing your doodling.
