Siz who?
Thanks for that address & no.
i would reserve judgement just yet that M/T made an SBF crossram for the 289. If someone wants to absolutely say so, that's fine, but most of M/T's stuff was Chevy supported and only for Chevy motors, particularly in the early days. Further, clearly a 58MM unit is way too much for a 289, unless it is sleeved down to just around or just over 40. Why do all that when the 40DCOE is cheaper and easier to find. 58's might be OK on a stroked W or a nice 427/8/9 something.
In later years, M/T did make FORD stuff also, but crossrams were early bits, way before Dominators and open plenums etc were so effective.
But, as you point out, we could have missed that fact somewhere in our cortex mush.
But, that polished crossram injector system is really beautiful.
