its not that great of an idea...hotrex's b-series later took a dump due to the block filling. the filling will strengthen the stock sleeves, but at the cost of cooling and thermal expansion/contraction. The coolant doesn't actually touch the sleeves with the devcon, and devcon will act as an insulator (OK for a drag only car where heat doesnt have much time to build, but not good for a daily driver or other form of track car). From what I've seen, I don't think this is any better on a whole for strengthening than a regular block guard or posting.
