Re: Bore/Stroke Ratios

your "B/S ratios" are actually "S/B ratios" - these are undersquare designs with B/S < 1. Seems to me there is nothing too surprising - the bigger displacement, longer stroke Packard engines make more torque. Would a shorter stroke engine have tend to less cylinder wear - well yes, but provided rpm was equal, and metalurgy was equal, and lubrication was equal, etc.
