to stroke or not to stroke?

Thank you madscientist . Now I feel like a complete fool for putting that 4 inch crank in my motor ! NOT!! And I still want to start a thread : who's disappointed with there stroker ? Not many if any. Your example of some wack job wanting a 850 torque motor with only 425 hp is Ludacris! the one good thing about being in business for myself is that I can turn away complete morons. Hp and torque should go relatively hand in hand. please list the specs for this build your talking about so we all know what not to do and how to make it terribly unbalanced motor. And then have the nerve to sell it to somebody who apparently needed mental help not a wallet check. Unlike some will falsely accuse I don't believe a 4-inch arm guarantees anything but for a mild build it sure helps.
