Nonsense ... although you do have to keep a careful eye on piston speed and
acceleration rates, the trick here is to use lightweight pistons and rods to
keep reciprocating mass down. Increasing the wristpin size is a good idea,
too.
FWIW, several tuners are using 95.5mm stroke cranks in 20v motors with
7000rpm redlines and they don't seem to have any problems with it.
