Ya .3* bsfc is hard.....really hard..
I was running roughly .476......
Seen some 2bl carbs for cascar series street stock at .39~.41...
That was allot of time and r&D.......

	No that's HP / cyl.  or about 28 lbs per hr at .5

	> 24 / 56.25 = 0.42 BSFC (which is dooable).

	Not really.  .45 alot takes work

	> (24 * .9) / 56.25 = .384 (which is probably also dooable).

	Only .38s I seen accurately reported were bikes DOHC 4 valve per
cyl..  And
	again by the best tuners

	Nope,  bet ya it's about having enough correction with out major BL
? Int
	numbers to go for the EPA testing.  Last thing they'd so is risk
motors over
	radiators.  Also, richer is alot cheaper warranty wise then lean.
	Grumpy
