CFM
I have been looking around for a formula for calculating the CFM of the HD engine and the one that I came up with is
RPM X DISPLACEMENT --------------------- 3,456 now with a 95 inch engine and considering max RPM at 6000 I have come up with a CFM of 167.67939 for this displacement. So I suppose my question is with this amount of CFM do we really need a super size airfilter.. I have K&N filter rated at around 400 CFM.. so why change. |

The answer is no, you don't need a super sized air filter. Freer flowing is better.
You can also get more than 100% cylinder fill but that's usually where the torque peak is, well below 6,000 rpm. The filter will be flowing a lot less just before ya clean it. |

I'm doing well. Almost all better.
Work is so nuts that there's almost no recreational time. Hopefully I can get that under control by summer time. |
