I want to address your math. I see you used displacement, rpm and volumetric efficiency to calculate air flow, but that math assumes the engine was at wide open throttle, correct??? You were not at wide open throttle and therefore the throttle plate was restricting air flow into the engine. Isn't your lie just an oversight on your math? Please explain since I obviously don't understand.
