Not Ranked
Hi Todd:
Those are impressive numbers.
One thing that strikes me, is the low Volumetric Efficiency VE% numbers? You may want to query your tuner/builder as to why those numbers are so low.
VE = (Actual CFM / Theoretical CFM) * 100
Generally, you can expect a so called normal run of the mill engine (stock) to give 75% at normal maximum speed and about 80% at max torque RPM.
A stock high performance engine should have VE Numbers of 80% at Maximum speed and 85% at max torque.
A blueprinted or racing engine usually achieves 90% at max speed and 95%+ at max torque.
Often, reasons for low VE numbers are found in the air pump aspect of the engine. ie: constricted exhaust or air filtration that starves the engine of potential air.
You may be able to even get more out of this engine! That is pretty impressive.
