If your going to a rolling road they might say its not correct Jack even if we suggest one it may not be spot on, depending on the issues you have with your fueling it may be better to wait? Unless its so bad your have major issues with flat spots etc, whats in there now?

First choice will be between AAA and AAM, then on the rollers there are a few different to try, like ABY AAB etc i'd start from AAU and reprofile it.

AAC wont really work, sorry.

As you're getting it rolling roaded, qet it reprofiled on the dyno, it will be MUCH easier

For now get the AAA or the AAM and tune it so you can reach the RR with decent fuelling, AAU will be lean, but thats the needle i started from when i did similar spec. Needed to file down few areas off, but the cruising is almost there.
