It means the stroke on the crank has been increased to give greater
displacement. For the R16 it's usually done by modifying a U20 crank to fit. On
other cars, the rod journals can be welded up and remachined off-center to get
the same effect.

Hello list,
What does "Stroked R16" mean? How does that differ from my stock 67.6 1600?
Thanks,
