I'm sure that one flows better than mine, but I don't trust them anymore. Are you running that motor yet?

Yeah, I would sue all of them in a class action suit that they are involved in false advertising. I'll be your lawyer since I don't have a blockgaurd, but would still like some cash. ;)

Do you think the motor would handle 10 psi without problem?

Re:block guard
 
Do you think that blockguard is going to stop it if it can't? Are you going to have the blockguard welded and machined in and get the block honed afterwards?

With good tuning your block/rods can handle as much boost as you can throw at it. I would say if you were a decent street tuner you could run 10 psi with no problems. If you would like overheating problems to go along with whatever problems you might already be faced with than instal the blockguard. I would hate to see someone go through what I myself and so many others have gone through. I can guarentee you the blockguard will only cause you problems.
