What is 100% VE?

-> Ture, but you cannot ignore the effects of exhaust/intake tunning as
-> these can push the VE to greater than 100% and the designed operating
-> point.  There are n examples of naturally aspirated race engines
-> achieving better than 100% VE.

 >100% VE is no big deal to a racing engine.  I have personally run a
317 cubic inch small block Chevy that pulled 129% on a Superflow dyno
we were calibrating.  ~13:1 CR, Victor Jr intake, ported Chevy heads, 6"
rods, and a relatively mild (by racing standards) roller cam.

 It's a sad excuse for a motorcycle engine that won't pull over 100%.
