that argument is all smoke and mirrors. the connecting rods are bigger because the pistons are bigger. the pistons are bigger because there are fewer of them to achieve the same displacement. mass per cylinder displacement is roughly the same. i love the display in the dodge dealership that compares connecting rod mass...it preys on people whom have no idea what they are looking at...
