WHAT???
Are you saying at higher RPM's the pistons go higher in the cylinder? oh yeah? The cast steel connecting rods actually SSSTTTRRRREEEEETTTCCHH at higher RPM's.

Don't take this advice. Pistons go up and down the same distance no matter what the RPM or you cars speed. They are mechanically attached to the CRANK by a steel Connecting rod.
