Ok, looks like all the bugs are out of the math and it looks like our PP 12A gets around 120%Ve. That corresponds to a number I had hear before, but nice to have an example to support it.
Thanks Lynn, Blake and Bob

Bob,
You corrected the wrong way. And I had 10000 instead of 10700 rpm.
12A Pports can do 310 HP at 10,700 RPM at .667
If the .667 is BSFC then start with that
Density of air at sea level 15C = .0765 lbs/cf air/fuel = 12
.667 bsfc x 310hp is 206.77 lbs/hr fuel
206.77lbs x 12 = 2481.24 lbs/hr air
2481.24 lbs/hr / 60min/hr = 41.354 lbs/min
(41.354 lbs/min) / (.0765 lbs/cf) * (1728 ci/cf) = 93411 ci /min
(934113ci/min) / (10700 rev/min) = 87.30 ci/rev
1200cc / (2.54cm * 2.54cm * 2.54cm)/ci = 73.22 ci volume
87.30 ci/rev / 73.22 ci/rev = 1.192 =119% VE
