Pardon me, PJ
I stand corrected concerning your gender and will not make that assumption again.
But if girl is the alternative to man I would perhaps choose woman instead.
I am again assuming that you are older than twelve.
It is not my intention to berate or condecend to you. My best friends are women and I apologize if I offended you.
Concerning rod ratio, I never considered piston side thrust issues to be an aspect of the debit side of poor rod ratio #'s.
This is interesting...
I have been schooled to consider the exteded time at tdc with more favorable rod ratios, along with leverage.
This leverage thing you can also achieve with offset boring something honda did on the f2, putting the centerline of the bore ahead of perpendicular to the crank centerline creating more leverage on the power stroke.
You could also do this with an aftermarket cylinder, huh Rich?
