Abstract

Master and slave pullrods are disclosed in which a master pullrod is coupled to a journal of a crankshaft. The slave pullrod indirectly couples to the crankshaft by coupling to the master pullrod. Such a configuration allows two connecting rods to be coupled to the journal of the crankshaft inline with each other.
