So I have a C crank in a model A block
My criteria was to leave the crank as large as possible without having to move the main bolts nor notch the inserts or bolts
This allowed for the crank to remain at 1.850 diameter mains and leave about.005 wall between the bore and bolts per side

It is just so much easier to use a B block and make it full pressure system
