[QUOTE="Powerstroke Cowboy, post: 1560986, member: 610"] I know of guys that DD and tow with the block partially filled. They say the key is to not fill it all the way up, as in keep it down below the deck by about two or three inches since that's where most of the heat is generated from the combustion. I have no experience with it. But, I will be doing the same on my engine when I rebuild it. Partial block filled (have the stuff just waiting for the right time) and wither a girdle or a bed plate. The idea (some of it that is) behind filling the block is to keep the block from flexing. That will cut down on the main caps walking and the block from cracking as well. Plus it will be better on the crank and main bearings as well. [/QUOTE]
