carb jeting question
I have a question about my carb jeting on my engine setup,
engine is 468ci gen 6, 8:1 comp ratio, Edelbrock alum ported head, hyd roller camshaft, b&m 250 blower @ 5.5 - 6 boost, twin QFT 850 marine blower carb boost ref, run it at 5500-5600 rpm. With that to achive an AFR at 11 WOT and a AFR at 12 at 3000 rpm i need to jet the primary to #77 with 4.5 power valve and the secondary have jet #106 so does it have any problem to run them with a big diference between the pri and sec jet size?
At 3500 rpm the power valve is open due to 0 vacuum and that rpm is my cruising speed and the AFR drop at 11, i know that is a rich mixture for cruising but i dont know what i can do to make the cruise speed leaner without afect the WOT AFR too much because i have already some big jet in the secondary.

No vacuum and no boost at 3500 rpm probably because of the blower spining and the load this is in a Scarab 29 single engine.
