That’s the same theory the Ford 3.3L-1V i6 is based on. Fords engineers designed the intake manifold and head as a single unit with insufficient airflow for the engine to build up enough rev’s to spin a bearing or blow a gasket. It wouldn’t even fit a blower or turbo. The theory holds true in both instances; but, what a waste! I’m just really not about to blow a whole bunch of rifle powder into the ether just to avoid having to measure.Knew a guy years ago that loaded 4895 in 44 Mag.
Asked him why - he said because he couldn't get enough in the case to get in pressure trouble. Just scooped the case in the powder, jammed a bullet on top.
I stayed well away from him on the firing line.
BTW: Nitrous oxide turns the 3.3L i6 into a fire breathing dragon - for about 15 seconds.
