Cams choice, Low CR vs VE%
Years ago, I spent a little time at Dave Wofsey's shop in Denver, Colo. talking with him about his invention "sonic plug". While his plugs were a semi-failure, the topic of power in unburnt fuels generated a fun conversation. Leaving fuel unburnt (lack of efficiency) is a waste of money and power. Trying to capture a 100% burn is a dream. Some have chased it with timing, some have chased it with hotter-longer spark, and some have chased it with atomization. Yes, getting a higher % burnt will result in more power of equal air/fuel.
