How do they pour that stuff in to close the deck? That's pretty cool. So how much more abuse and power can a closed deck EJ25 handle compared to an open deck?

" The next picture shows our modified EJ25 block with our machine work to fill in the open space and brace the top of the cylinder. We still leave holes in the appropriate place for coolant to flow through the heads, but the majority of the space is now filled with billet aluminum using a special zero tolerance fit. "

I'm sure it wouldnt fit, that'd be SWEET if one did though lol
