^^^^^^as well as a stroker crank with long rods. take a +4mm stroker crank with 115mm rods for example. long rods by them selves aren't really of much benefit. the longer 115mm rods help to offset the extra strain the +4 crank puts on the pistons and cylinders. an engine refered to as a long rod motor may also have a stroker crank. on the other hand there aren't many stroker cranks sold with a stock length rod either!
