Block Guard using Devcon Alum Liquid
I know people are doing this and its been a while so I'd like to know how well the blocks are holding up. Is the epoxy actually dissipating the heat properly? This seems to be an ideal way to support the cylinders, but I scepticle since its not as mainstream as I would have thought.

Mines holding up fine. Its been filled for over a year, this year I have been boosted @10psi, not one problem. The only time I had overheating issues is when my slim fan took a dump on me. Otherwise, can't complain.
Hotrex's motor cracked a sleeve because he admittedly did a shitty job tuning..

Re: Block Guard using Devcon Alum Liquid
well, even though the GE block guard is one of the best. It still does not ditribute pressure evenly like the liquid would. but my though is that the epoxy will not transfer heat as well.
thanks for all the info. this is for a 500+Hp fully built S2000 so I wanted some people with experience to comment before proceeding. i may just go with the block guard this time.
