Talk:Stroke ratio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hopefully this article is not thrown away and erased. I thought that as the stroke ratios had caused me headaches before finding some facts about them I thought it might be a good idea to create an article of it to wikipedia. Hopefully someone could organize the writing better as it is in quite a terrible shape.

[edit] Factually incorrect

I'm working on a better version of this, but in the mean time, I want everybody to know that the reason why an undersquare engine develops more torque has NOTHING to do with the leverage advantage of the longer crank arm. This has become "common sense" among mechanics, and citations are definitely needed to the contrary. I'm going to have to dig a bit. If Wikipedia allowed original research, I could mathematically prove it to you. kevinthenerd (talk) 16:48, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
