if the water temp and the engine temp differ too much and you put alot of water on/in it it could crack your block...

I would hazard to say that pouring ANY water on an overheated engine is like the last thing you would want to do. It's not going to cool it off, it's just going to make a mess and maybe warp it (worse than it already is).

it certainly wouldn't help it, if there is to much of a temp dfference, it could crack your block.
I would have to say that rapidly changing the temperature of something s more dangerous than just heating it.
