Spool size on a Crower IR injection.
Sidewinder:
Yep Alan, nine cracks is record in my book at least ;) It might be more, but I have stopped counting;) The cause was more than one fault. After breaking the rear-end, 8 3/4 Chrysler, we really needed a good run the same weekend, so overheated the poor old flattie, and smart me had experimented, filling the block with expoxy witch should not expand, but it did!! ;) So two new blocks are in the works, as all internal parts survived ;)
Are are correct Alan, and you pointed out the fact that this Crower injector was never made for a displacement of 580 cid. Also modern high flow racing heads and cams also is an factor. With 2.9" butterflies opening, this one needs alot of fuel ;)

One of the members here Andrewb has had a flat head V8 block for sale that has been filled with aluminum. I see it pop up on Craigslist every now and than

Paul – thank you for passing on that information; seldom seen drag-only block. Andrew and his flathead, he has remarkable ideas, be memorable milestone he finishes his project. We all know requires much patience, constantly other priorities. Alan

Yes his father in-law Earl Floyd is a wealth of knowledge! He ran Jr.fuel injected nitro Desotos and many more combinations
