They have different rods and pistons. I think they have the same crank, but aren't sure on that one.

The heads were redesigned too.

Stroke is the same so I'd say the crank is also, differance in short motor is mainly the bore, giving a whopping 35mls more!

Yeah I think the bore was increased VERY marginally.

Then again, with such a long stroke, it wouldn't have made sense to increase the stroke.
