My dyno sheets don't have volumetric efficiency on them, but when I simulate my 500 HP oval port 502s, the dyno program says 90% V. E. at 5000 RPM. That should be close enough.

I'v seen numbers over 100% with good headers and a single plane manifold.

Thanks, I am thinking that over about 500 hp will require more than an 800cfm carb on a marine engine anyways at ve = 95 or so.
