The idea behind the stuffers is that more case vacuum is built when the piston is on its way up and more pressure is built on the way down before the transfers open. The results are a higher but narrower rpm hp range

I understand what your saying but I'm not buying it, Amount of Vacuum Drawn is a result of piston size and stroke, small piston and stroke smaller draw, larger piston and stroke larger draw regardless of case volume. The amount of vacuum measured in inches of mercury hg is controlled by the inlet opening size and speed rpm to a point of the engine and again with the piston and stroke size having a controlling effect. I would buy into the idea if the crankcase was empty lack of a fuel charge but it isn't so in my wisdom of thinking if you have a larger area that is fully charged with mix you will build more pressure on the down stroke where the vacuum drawn will still be controlled by piston stroke and intake opening size.
But Hey what the Hell do I Know, I'm just an ole Redneck Hillbilly.
