This may not be of any help to you, but I recall seeing 9:5 af ratio for E85 engines. I don't know what's the conversion.

If you are correctly adjusting for the change in fuel chemistry (stoich point), then you really don't need any significant change in target lambda. Part throttle and idle should still target 1.00 and your target of 0.77 at WOT is a fine starting point. You might elect to run a little leaner once it's all sorted, but it's not absolutely necessary. For a street driven setup, I would not likely go leaner than 0.82 target, with 0.79-0.80 being more probable. Quibbling about +/-2% fueling won't make much difference in power at this point as long as you have the proper spark advance for whatever final ratio you run.
