Default RE: DL-50 engine

Hey guys,
New DL-50 owner here, havent fired her up yet but plan to in the next few days. I bought Lawnboy ashless for break in and Belray MC1 Synth for after. Anyone else using Belray?

Questions: I'm at 4,400ft above sea level, wondering what ratio to go with on the Belray MC1 Synth and possibly the Lawnboy Ashless? I know what the manual recommends, I just don't know if my altitude would effect oil to fuel ratios like I know it effects carb tuning.

From what I understand about canisters... they only perform @ high rpms. Are there any other options that would increase performance throughout the entire throttle range that wouldtn't require a separate header/canister type setup?
