440 block filled water jackets

Okay. I understand that now. Makes sense they need to expand together. So then, is it the bore size that determines how it will or want expand? The amount of fill or lack of? Would I be safe to assume if I looked it over and dont see any obvious damage that I should still have it magnafluxed?

I don`t think a block only filled to the bottom of the freeze plug holes will have a cool cyl. anyway, water can still circulate in most of the cyl. where all the power is made.
A block filled to bottom of the holes would be stouter w/ a girdle , it would help stabilize the main studs.
