I'm trying to figure out how to read these figures from my new air/fuel meter.

On a LS2 that is supercharged, what would be considered running rich and how about lean? # wise?

Thanks guys.

Thanks guys.On a supercharged application, you would expect to see high 11:1 range at WOT (11.5-11.9), unless it was tuned in person, then maybe low 12s (not for me personally). Anything above 12.5:1 at WOT would be too lean in my book.

At cruise and idle, you should see right around 14.7:1.
