If I have greater VE with the bigger bore, does that mean... That my car could be tuned with a leaner tune than say a stock bore motor'd car?
I have 4.060 bore, 4.075 stroke, 242/242//114/112ic cam, 2.08/1.60 valves with stage II heads, LS6 intake and the rest of the expected stuff.
Thoughts?

In keeping with any desired "AFR" and seeing as you have more "A" with extra "VE" therefor wouldn't you require more "F" to keep the "R" the same... But at the end of the day... "AFR" would remain the same... to your desired setting.

Re: If I have greater VE with the bigger bore, does that mean... It means that you draw in more air per CI than someone with less VE. This means you need more fuel than others (the MAF will take care of this), but does not change your target AF ratio. Regardless of the amount of air you have, a 13.0 ratio seems to work best for power.
