    Can anyone help me out with this Have a French block Flathead putting a scat rotating assembly in it The crank came with out any woodruff keys i called Scat and they gave me some dimensions that i cant find anywhere So i seen somewhere someone said a PK-9 woodruff key but i think it needs another number But Im not sure on that either. So any help i could get from the Group would be Greatly Appreciated . Im looking for the Crank Gear Key and the Lower pully key its a March lower Pully It looks to be around a 1 1/4 long the crank gear key looks about 5/8 long Please Help If You Can . Just cant believe Scat would not include the Keys.

    I’d assume it would be the same as the crank you’re replacing. I/e a SBC v SBC Scat would be the same

    The reason I say this I doubt they would expect you to buy some obscure pulley that matches up to their crank, you never know, I just kinda doubt it

  3. If the crank key way is not machined like a Ford,,,,,,or takes Ford keys,,,,I suspect the Scat crank .
    This was not a “second “ crank is it ?,,,,,,seems like a Flathead key should be the same .
    By the way,,,what are the key dimensions from Scat ?
