i wonder if anyone can speak to setting mixture using the EGT [exhaust Gas temp] ,, trying to set LOP [lean of Peak]

am i correct in thinking that when i go lean of peak the EGT will drop?


just fueled .. here is the graph ,,,added some product *restore* need to get stabilized before the A-B-A with the Methanol/nitromethane/castor oil Soup in the top jar..
hope restore will help my oil pressure and cyl compression
I think that depends on how lean you can get a carb system . I might be wrong but I don't think you can get carb systems to run good at lean mixtures (above 15:1) like fuel injector .
I used to work on performance vehicles and we tried to keep EGT below 1400 but this was WOT and turbo's . At part throttle you can probably stand a little more EGT .

I did a quick google search and this came up .
