    Default AFR at low rpm with large cam

    Most everything I read says that you are shooting for the stoich ratio when tuning but then I also read that at low rpm large cams tend to have unburnt gas so the afr reading appears to be lean when its not.

    When tuning is there a general guide as to what the AFR should be at low rpm. Also, what range of rpms and MAF hzs are effected.

    Thanks

    That is correct (unburnt fuel = unburnt oxygen = lean reading on wideband).

    Tune for the lowest MAP (i.e. the most vacuum).
