What is the difference between a stroker crankshaft and a offset crankshaft?

A Stroke of a crankshaft is determined by the "Distance" between the "center-point (CP) of Crankshaft(CRKST) to the center-point(CP) of Rod Journal(RJ)" where the big end of the Connecting Rod(CR) goes. the small end of the CR attaches to the Piston(PN) via a wrist pin. If that "Distance" is 2 inches(2.00) <a half-stroke> multiply by 2 = 4inches or a 4.00 Stroke, and this amount of full stroke usually gives good truck torque at low to mid RPM. Now when the PN is both at Top Dead Center(TDC) or Bottom Dead Center(BDC), the The Bore of a cylinder where the piston rides up & down(stroke) is measured by diameter, say 3-1/2(3.5) inches divided by 2 = 1-3/4(1.75) inches, is the center of your Bore and that lines up directly with the center-point of your CRKST, or a Center-line crankshaft.


What is stroke of an engine?

The stroke of an engine is the distance the piston travels within the cylinder from bottom dead centre to top dead centre. This is governed by the throw of the crankshaft.
