Is it out of the question to increase the width of the core to 1-1/2 blade widths and track it in with the D-6, by tracking side, center, other side?

His scraper is heavy enough to do it end to end, rather than side to side
OK, I get it on the weight of the scraper. I believe I may have painted a fuzzy pic on my question, quoted above. Both the scraper (e-mover) and the dozer transmit weight at both edges of the equipment. There is no compaction at all at the center of the equip. My question/proposal was to cut the core 1.5 times the equipment width to allow it to make multiple, parallel passes thru the core trench, adjusting the path to hit ALL areas within the trench. Lastly, are we nix'ing the dozer for suitable compaction regardless of the number of passes...period?
