That being stated, what matters is overall stroke for TQ output, which would be related to rod length. Longer stroke=more TQ, in theory.

So would this imply that (all other engine attributes staying the same) a longer rod would give you a shorter stroke, and thus less TQ?
Edit: I'm using this diagram for my logic. A longer rod would then result in less room for the piston to travel and compress the gas?
