Both cranks are in production in new saws. The 156 has the short crank, 165 has the longer crank. I think they wanted more cc's out of the existing platform. The base saw was a 56, next option was the 962 (a 2 mm bore increase over the 56). Then the 165 came out. It has the bigger (962) bore and longer stroke.

The 156 has a wide squish, stick the 165 crank in (or easier put the 156 head on a 165 case) the squish drops to .020.

Did you think about a 962 cyl on a 165?  I have 6 new 165 and 2-156's and a new 962 P&C kit to play with.  Don't know which way to go with the 962 P&C 156 or 165??  What would you suggest?  Also have new 181 and a spare P&C for it to play with.
