ThrowThrow
Combustion Pressure Is Force
Rotation Is Twist
Throw is Perpendicular DistanceThe Formula for Torque is;Force X Distance = Torque
If Torque Is to Remain the Same and We;
Increase the “Throw” of the Crankshaft, The Speed of Rotation Will Go Down.
Decreased the “Throw”, the Speed of Rotation Will Go Up.

With the throttle plate at less than “wide open”, the
maximum amount of torque has not been achieved. If we open the throttle any more, torque does not
increase. The extra torque will be translated to an
increase in speed.
