I just finished a cylinder with a 7/8" bore and 1-1/4" throw. This is a slide valve steam cylinder type engine.
The inlet steam ports are .394 in between and are .078 wide. Total from out to out ports is .550.
Is there a formula to find the throw on the eccentric. I am guessing that the throw is 1/2 the total of the admission ports, .197
