One thing leads to another... mean 318?

For someone to change his mind on a subject, the other has to make a compelling or at least any argument, you yet to do either, not like you have to, but there's no reason to change my mind cause no one has said anything resembling a point.
And name calling what are you Five, I'm suppose to change my mind cause you don't agree, there is others on here do, talking with you is pointless, like you accuse me of, your mind seems made up.

Think about this. Find someone to arm wrestle with. Make sure it's someone in equal shape and of about the same strength as you. However, make sure that persons forearm is at least 1" longer than yours. You're not going to win. It's called leverage. That's the main reason above all others right there a longer stroke makes more power. Yes, it is a combination of things, but the longer stroke has more leverage for the pistons and rods to push against, so it's easier for the engine to produce more torque. If that doesn't convince you, you're in the wrong hobby.
