The rod length/stoke ratio would be getting a bit scary.

Well it seems that this is an example of the maximum capacity that can be extracted from the a14/15.

Nice work to the owner.

"78mm bore with Toyota pistons, A15 crank turning outer 5 mm, A12 conrods"

What does "...turning outer 5 mm" mean. Also - why the A12 rods?

Does this have 5mm longer stroked crank?

Your guess is as good as mine. This was for sale on Yahoo auctions...that's all the info I have.

The A12 (short) rods might be because of the piston, but I'm thinking the crank is stroked 5mm. Dman could probably figure is scientifically.
