Would be cool to do an engine with the short stroke 2.5 89s and the long stroke crank which would come out at around 11:1.

If I had my choice for an ~2.7 liter engine on a long stroke crank, I think I would give up 65 cc and go for the higher compression of the 89s rather than the "high compression" 90 mm piston.
