Sandbombers the only stroker I knew of before, and he wouldn't tell you that your hair was on fire.

Coefficient of friction reduced with roller bearings and leverage of ft-lbs/min (or hp) increased per stroke by the percentage of length the crank is extended per stroke. The roller bearings help offset the energy required to power the longer stroke, but the roller bearings seem like an efficiency measure in all parts of the cycle. Balancing the lightened extended crank forces seems crucial in making this work reliably. This is a high skilled mechanical/machinest job to be sure and one I have never considered before due to prohibibitive integration builder costs and risks normally associated with custom one-time builds.

There is something else going on that makes a stroker better than a big bore for racing applications when comparing similar displacement. (730 big bore vs a stock bore with a 10mm stroker which is also 730)
Anyone have any ideas?

yJacket you will find I dont know chit about motors!!!!!! I let the pros build for me and dont try to think I have a clue LOL I work on set up and weight so I dont get into motor talk[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Im just to dumb for that!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
