Here's another example of how there is no correlation between the stroke and the torque:
That's the dyno sheet of a 311ci SBF with a 3" stroke! It bested the 351C by ~25 lb-ft and was only within ~10 lb-ft of the 363 that I posted.
That little engine is an excellent example of how to manipulate hp/tq peaks and hp/tq curves. It's only 10.25:1 compression....
Actually, that little 311 would trigger a lot of internet forum keyboardists. The cam timing was very advanced, 109 LSA with a 101 ICL, but yet it pulled to 7400-7600 with only a 239° @ .050" solid roller camshaft and made more torque than a lot of other larger engines.
