What would it take to make 1.44 lbs-ft per cid ?

So he ran faster with less air.....
Again your fascinating with the Small.

You don't think he would of rathered to run the right velocity with 280 cfms, he went faster running the right velocity for the size of port (rule limited) which meant lower cfms but the maximum he could squeeze out of them.

Again a strawman argument, you think I think cfm is everything which I don't.

It's about what's right or best you can do/get for given circumstance which might be far from ideal.
