big block, block filler question

[cold85]

I have just got my 500ci mopar motor back from the machine shop. I filled the bottom of the block with hardener to strengthen the bottom end. My question is at first i was not going to drive the car on the street, but now i want to drive it a mile or two to a car meet. I was wondering if it would be okay to do that if i put in an external oil cooler.

From what ive seen you can do as planned for short distances. BUT the cooling system MUST BE spot on able to keep it cool with no question and no issues. In other words alum radiator, high volume pump, appropiate cooling fans.
