Just illustrating a point

, the 347 gets a bad rap for a short R/S ratio and I just wanted to show an engine that was considered highly successful and one that had a shorter R/S than the 347 with a 5.4" rod. I think that BOP 455's had even crappier R/S ratios? but were pretty successful as perfromance engines.
