Stroker physics - where the differences are?
if a race engine is being put together.. meaning the package is being designed to race with none of the compromising for street miles... Then the best way to make more power is to rev it. Simply put, if a 340 makes 320hp or 40hp/cylinder/power stroke, the best way to get more power to the wheels is to get more strokes per minute... or more rpm. So more power gets to the tires in the same amount of time, thus accelerating it faster. A longer stroke focuses more power per power stroke but they get harder to hold together and feed at higher rpms.
