Has anybody tried using an A15 crank in an A12 Block? What Kind of rods were used? Someone suggested that I find some pistons that had piston Pin holes closer to the top to compensate for the longer stroke. I did not like that idea as I would think that shorter rods would mean less weight flying around in there.

longer rode's will giv a better angle when the crank is at 90deg's from TDC or BDC witch is an atvantage at highe RPM's. and I dont no how much Higher you could go with the gugen pin but it wouldent be that much Higher that the rod's would be way heavyer, and if you lighten the crank I'm sure you could get it to atcheav what you want it to?

Ask the Dodge he has an A14 crank in one of his hybrids, rod and stroke ratio is still better than many modern engines.
