Default 8 tenths of r/s ratio worth it?

im wondering if going from a r/s of 1.91:1 to 1.99:1 would be much of a diffrance? i have the option of buying a longer rod for $400 more. worth the $400? btw this is not a honda motor, its a nissan. but i know alot you yall know your ****. im kinda going into uncharted areas of motor building in the nissan community. so i would like your help. thanks

If I was building an N/A motor, I'd probably do it. Don't know if it would make a difference, but I'd still probably do it just out of principle.

That's only if I was revving the thing really high though. How high do those things rev?

for your nissan "big bore" yes, the 8/10ths is worth the $400 price tag ... I'd get it
