Is cruising very lean on e85 a problem?

im wondering what the safe limit is for e85 cruising, because EGT's seems to stay nice and cool with no missing at 17:1

Tuner is advising me to stay 15.5, but I stay around there with 93...

so, how lean do you run cruising?

Mid 15's is what I have always cruised at on pump or e85.

If things look ok a bit leaner I say go for it though but be careful... Every car is different so sometimes you can get away with more or sometimes less.

maybe a good question to ask is what are safe EGT temps? lol.

I noticed i cruise at around 1300 F with 93 on open loop (14.7), and I stay around there or less with e85 at 17
