That's antiquated thinking Tim.
You would have a rod ratio of 1.49:1

At 5500 rpm, you would have no issues whatsoever.

I'd rather keep the short deck and shorter pushrods

I never said it was bad at all. I will say this anyone that thinks there is a drastic difference in Rod angle from a 4.25 stroke and 4.375 stroke doesn't have a clue about elementary math let alone motors.
