forgot to mention..i've done a lot of reserach and it seems that onlyt the people who "hammer" the blockguard in are having problems w/ overheating. also that it would benefit it to have it put in about 1 1/2 inches from the top of the sleeves. should i have the machine shop weld this in as well?

I've tapped mine in, with 2 different blocks never had problems with overheating. Only when I tried bypassing the coolant outlet off the intake manifold
