  <<when I see results vs. theory, I tend to go with results.>>

That makes some sense, but it is important to identify THE real cause 
of the results.  Sometimes the *assumed* cause is not correct.  A large 
volume under the cowl allows the pressure to drop.  That lowers drag, 
not the other way around.  The smaller, the plenum, the higher the 
drag.
