I would like to hear your pro's & con's about using "Hard Blok" in the lower half of the block, in a 2005 GEP block.
High flow WP, hayden 2886 clutch, 9 blade steel fan.
New BIG griffin aluminum radiator.
NPG+ coolant will be used not water based coolant.
Synthetic oil everywhere.
2 oil coolers.
I know that new machining will be done after it has cured, so don't tell me that. ( have Kennedy 18:1 pistons on the way) so line boring & decking will be done, head stud's.
Will be used on the street and 2 water filter set ups will be used before & after the radiator to take care of loose particles, 180 temp single stat set up.
Added block strength is the reason this is considered along with a stud girdle.
I know a lot of race people use this & the NPG coolant, most of them use it in big HP motors on the street W/filtering systems, they say that most if not all the heat is in the head area and that filling the block up to the bottom of the stroke doesn't bother the heat, most even claim they see a lower heat because the water flow is much better and heat soak isn't as bad.
What do Y'all have to say ??
Fill to bottom of freeze plugs - bottom of water inlet hole - ????
