What sort of power are you guys getting out of 80lb siemens. Using the1’s spread sheet im seeing 80% dc at 270 odd kw. Does that sound about right? If my fuel pump is struggling to keep up will that cause the high duty cycle

We went 370rwkw on 60lb ones but on Avgas which is the same as petrol nothing like e85 .out 255L/hr pump didn't keep up swapping to a 340L made it way rich afterwards

Yrah thats what im thinking. Im not logging fuel pressure yet so cant really see whats going with that atm. Ive had to add that much fuel up top and still afr’s are starting to get a bit hard to control
