Nope. Because some of us do “wrong” things to try and get the full port to work at high lift, high air speeds and that’s even if the flow bench says you lost some flow, especially low lift.
Bingo! Just because you notch the cylinder, it doesn’t mean you have fixed the issue. Sometimes it’s living with the short comings along with the plus side of things. A catch 22 if you will.
The bigger the bore the better the cylinder head can breath.
If you could have a SBM stroker @ 426 cubes, the further you go the shorter stroke and big bore route, the better the head breaths. The short stroke is great for rpm’s and more the merry when creating hp.
