Scanmaster normal ranges?

[monteperformanc]

I just installed a scanmaster 2.1 on my stock 87 Gn. I'm trying to determine if the readings I am getting are within normal range. Is this info available somewhere? I tried a search and I find bits of info here and there, but nothing all in one place.

High boost at .035 gap? Makes me question the whole chart

High boost at .035 gap? Makes me question the whole chart

'High' is a relative term.... I think the implication there is, say, 20-21 psi as opposed to the stock 16-ish... and I believe the primary intent of that tidbit is to advise the use of a colder heat range plug (R42 vs. R43) if upping the boost a bit... a tight .035 is the norm under those conditions....

Thanks. Everything looks pretty normal except my BLM is a little high at 136. Is that something I should be concerned about?

it's a bit high...bump the fuel pressure up a pound or two, and that should bring it down... if not, post back...
