This might help explain a bit about AFR and where the EGT (exhaust gas  
temp), CHT (cylinder head temp), ICP (internal cylinder pressure  
peak), HP, and BSFC (brake specific fuel consumption)

Note that maximum power and highest CHT both result from a slightly  
rich mixture.
  1/Brake Specific Fuel Consumption is fuel efficiency and it peaks at  
a slightly lean mixture. Note the much lower, and safer, CHT

Sorry I wouldn't be very happy with those numbers, low 10's would be  
stinkin rich at WOT.

I shoot for 13.0 to 13.5 at WOT and 16 for light throttle cruise, my  
square falls right on 14.5-14.7 at highway cruise right now and gets  
hotttt, but it is a bit of a high strung little single port..

  If it is city driving off and on the throttle, it runs and cools  
just great, then as soon as we hit the highway it starts warming up

But i ran out of time and warm weather last fall to do some more jet  
changes and testing with the LM2.
