Hey Rawze, I’ve been running my OFC table in a similar fashion as you described above with good results. It would look to someone like a rudimentary attempt with no thought to the outcome but I just stole the idea from an old N-14 cal. rich down low in the cranking region with a 1.5 throughout the rest of the table. Acceleration is strong with just a puff of smoke on upshifts.

And also how do we monitor or determine if the torque/fuel tables need attention? If I remember correctly when I did anything with these tables it just made the engine wanna “run-on” when ya got out of the throttle.
