Larry,Have not been able to get back to you due to the holidays. I am enjoying your program!! One thing that you can help me with though. I ran my own ProGas bike on the V.E. program and it said it was "only" 94%. I just felt I would have done better!!! Maybe I have just learned a another hard lesson!! Anyway,There have been many arguments over V.E. numbers,that is wether or not +100% can be achieved or not . My own opinion is , yes you can.But what is your opinion?? With proper porting,intake tract length,ram tuning,etc,what is the "END" of V.E...I would encourage and enjoy all replys.   Craig

RE: Maxrace/Read

Craig....the Ve % percent it computes is the
"Trapped Ve%"  meaning ;

Trapped_Ve = ((Measured_CFM - ( Blowby_CFM + OverScavenge_CFM )) / ( CID * RPM * .000289352 )) * 100

Craig ..you have to accurately measure Compression Ratio
and Enter this along with Peak Torque Ft/Lbs. at 600 RPM/SEC accel rate ...and Cubic Inches

if you enter peak torque figures from steady state it will result in LESSER VE% numbers

run a simulation on the current Pro Stock Bike 's specs and see what you get for Ve % ???
