The heck with the filters, I'm getting a 390 Holley for my slant six  Thanks for the info  Back to the confusing chart, I think it was made with a carb or other restriction (only logical explanation with the data we have), and that in some cases makes some sense, because for instance, whats the point of doubling(?) a filter's area, if the gain is very small because of the limits of the carb? Besides everyone pretty much agrees we already know doubling a filters area (same), will double airflow.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

You are correct, there were no changes other than changing the air filter element. I don't have the A/F numbers with me, they are at the office, but they were monitored on each run. I remember that the numbers leaned out just a little from the first test of each series to the baseplate only runs. If I remember the runs ranged from about 12.3:1 to 12.85:1 as the runs progressed. I will have to see if I can dig up the numbers tomorrow.
