A tad of additional case clearancing will be necessary to run these rods.
A long rod will give a slower piston speed, and therefore a longer life for the rings and cylinder walls, but this also causes the cylinders to fill up slowly when the piston moves down during the inlet stroke. Of course, once the rpm builds this is overcome, hence the higher power band. A shorter rod will, of course, fill the cylinder much faster and therefore give more power at lower engine speeds, but be limited to a lower rev range.
of these to my order now.
