so the key thing is just dont run alot of rpm threw it then, and then i shouldnt have to worry about spliting the block

for the most part yes. dont expect 800hp if you keep the rpms low but low rpms will allow the block to handle much more power then if your shifting over 6000rpms

RE: what dose it take to crack a block

just one more question, when everyone says there power, are they sayin it to the wheels, like a block can 500 hp is to the wheels, because if i buy a block it will be a sportsmen block what kind of power will block make before i really have to worry
