Stroke to rod ratio


76s30

Recommended Posts

I've been reading alot of pasts posts here and have seen alot of misconceptions about stroke to rod ratio being asscoiated with the stroke

"I thought the ideal stroke/rod was 1.8 on a short stroke engine"

and many others just like this.

so I though i would post some very good reading, it sarts off explaining the 4 stroke cylce yada yada, but if you read farther there is some really good stuff in there so for you reading /learning pleasure

Wow.. Thanks!!!

 

I would be very interested to hear opinions on this article from some of the incredibly wise and knowledgeable L-series engine builders here... (okay, I will point my finger directly at braap with a polite smile:-D)

 

To the rest of us, who haven't spent years in a machine shop building engines, this is DEFINITELY very valuable reading!!!
