Nice video comparison of 2 very alike N/A engines, only stroke being the difference.
Regardless of engine make, this video proves gaining hp by stroking an engine is a waste. Intake valve size sets the hp potential. Using the same head for both engines achieve the same hp.
Prime example?
4.6l vs 5.4l or 302 vs 351 with the same head set up. No magic hp power is had with more cubes. Although torque is greater! But does the added weight prove it's worth?
