There are other important things to consider. A 700 HP LT5 perform different and better than a 370 cfm flowing LS7.

We brought a C6 Z06 on the same car weight like a C4 ZR-1 and did some acceleration tests. The LS7 pulled in spite of its 427 cui pretty modest.
Of course you are right Sam. The motor spends most of its time in the mid lift flow area. Max flow is visited very briefly.
