Ehh I just feel good about running 40-1, I have had many people tell me they run, or suggest running 40-1 in the blaster. I will admit that I have had more people ( on the forum anyway ) tell me to run at 32-1. 40-1 is the ratio I have been using since I got my blaster, and with the quality oil and proper jetting, I have had good results. I think its cool that the both of us are just on the other side of the 32-1 fence . . . Even tho we're on opposite sides. What made you want to experiment, and choose your preferred ratio ? Come the nice weather I would not be opposed to experimenting with ratios, jetting, and of course plug chopping.
