Perfect burn is 14.7:1 for petrol and 15.5:1 for LPG

So that's stechiometric? (spelling?)
In the real world, it's alot safer to run a little richer than that, especially if you are running in hot conditions or are turbocharged. My last custom-tuned turbocharged car was tuned to a safe 13:1 at its absolute leanest. Any leaner could melt pistons and valves.
Running 14.7:1 i think would be very dangerous.
