Rick, all I would say is that most mortals, not Jay Brown, not you, not a few others, but mortals like me or Patrick, cannot tell the difference between a 468 (4.125" stroke) or 482 (4.25" stroke), as an example.

Also, I think Jay is making a much more global point, not just limited to his 585ci SOHC engine.

Just my opinion, but I think the everyday Joe or Jane Six-Pack is kidding him or herself, if they say they can feel the engine with the 4.125" stroke revving faster than the one with the 4.25" stroke.

I call BS on most. Jay has built plenty of non-SOHC engines too.
