There are several options for what would "work out" here but the optimum would be nearest to what I suggested. There is a very wide range of A/F mixtures and CFM options which seem to work just fine with our Flathead engines because the torque curve is flatter than most other engines. But, in many cases these are "seat of the pants" assessments which are not quantified, realistic, evaluations. Just because something seems to work "OK" does not indicate it is the best.
I do not make suggestions just to be talking. I present only the facts. People can choose to learn or not.
As Joe Friday used to say, "we just want the facts, man".
