But that is not my question My question is where did they gain the stroke in a 4.5 l it is 2 in greater and stroke I don't know if they increase the rod or the crankshaft throw I'm taking the rotating assembly out of a 4.5 because it is forged and putting it in a 4.3 so I can turbo it
I don't know if you're only about mechanic or if you build cars too but everybody knows there are two ways to build a stroker motor you either want a high RPM stroker motor or high torque stroker motor, if you want to increase the torque of an engine you add the increase stroke to the...
Rrod length absolutely changes stroke, ie: say you have a crank that has a 3-in stroke and you add a rod that has a 4-in stroke you now have a 7-in stroke
So I've been doing research and I know that the 4.5 mercruiser is based on the 4.3 V6 Chevy but mercruiser cast their own block I've also figured out that it has a longer stroke My question is did they achieve the longer stroke with a longer rod or a crankshaft with more throw ie is the...
