Mark,
My asymm spinn set-up is the same as Bob's. If you want to get the block out forward of the headstay, you might want to look into Rig-Rite's spinnaker bails and cranes. They will certainly take any load, since they are purpose built. Link here:
Hope this helps.

My mast has two forward facing sheaves. Port side has the genoa halyard
on it. I fly the asymmetric spin on the starboard sheave. I dropped it
on a starboard tack last week with no problems. Was running pretty deep
and the wind had just about died, but no hangups.
Have a photo of the masthead?
Bob
