ok stroker guru's, gig this one

Wow, this has turned out to be a good info thread! Thanks guys. Moper i understand now that I look at it with your Quarter VS. Dime analogy.
It's also why having the right timing curve while running a fast burning pump fuel is important with these engines. Am I on the correct track of thinking that the "Quarter" is going to need the timing retarded slightly more than the "Dime" will plus need a slower burning fuel (higher octane, octane slows the fuels burn rate) because normally high cylinder pressure and fast burn fuel is a recipe for disaster. I'm going to eventually build one or the other that will be built more towards torque production over h.p. (short cam, dual plane, small(ish) carb) for daily street duties.
