Great pic, it illustrates my point perfectly.
At about 12.3 you get peak torque, which is what you want on full load/full throttle, and just under 16 gives you the lowest fuel consumption, which is what you want on cruise (highway/freeway part throttle).
Stoichometric is at 14.7, but as you can also see, it gives neither best power or economy. but all engines & setups are different, & I guess if you had carbies it might be around what you'd aim for.
Otherwise it is my understanding that 4AGEs can take rather lean mixtures on cruise (you'd want to let your tuner decide that though), & it's pretty common knowledge that around 12.3:1 generally makes the best power.
