Thanks for the details, my math was definitely just off-the-cuff. To tie it back to the original post, what I was trying to do is show how you have to be careful attributing "impressive" performance to the head once you cross the threshold where a stock engine would begin to encounter obstructed airflow (of any origin) – and that threshold happens pretty early.
