Designed by Bruce Crower, this innovative powerplant utilized Cosworth DFV heads, known for their exceptional performance in motorsport.
The combination of Crower’s engineering prowess and the advanced Cosworth technology promised to create a formidable engine.
However, C.A.R.T. (Championship Auto Racing Teams) quickly regulated the engine out of competition before it could undergo extensive development, which limited its potential impact on the racing scene.
Despite this setback, the Crower 8 remains a testament to the creativity and ambition of its creator.
The engine symbolizes the constant push for innovation in motorsport, showcasing how engineering brilliance can sometimes be stymied by regulatory changes. Even though it didn't see the track as intended, the Crower 8 is still remembered by enthusiasts and engineers alike.
