Rod ratio vs Eng acceleration
Larry Widmer, Smokey, and other accomplished engine masters have written on these subjects .. Larry suggests 1.75 is optimum, Smokey liked as much as the dimensions would allow .. I find myself constrained by the available, and affordable, rod lengths offered in BBC size or Mopar size.
I am currently using 7.1" BBC rods on my offset ground to 4.15" stroke (1.71 r/s) and the same rod on a 4.3" stroke (1.65 r/s). High $$$ rods are available to 7.6", then they become $$$$$$ rods
I look forward to DV's, and the memberships, writings on this subject.
