There's no set number. The only real way to see is to get your car on a dyno and monitor with a wideband.

I had just the walbro, and ran 11 pounds on the dyno in april. I put down 232 rwhp, my a/f rose to 12.5 for 300 rpms....but oddly enough this was after the secondaries had already come online. From there it settled into a 11.2-11.4:1 all the way to redline.
