Like I said, might be time to tie the top and bottom together.
I'm surprised the euro boy hasn't chimed in to inform you knuckle daggers that the real cause of failure was the compound turbos, too much back pressure on the cylinders!

My question is, will this prevent the block from cracking? Or just keep it from blowing apart like Black Sheep or Jacked Up did?
I don't see how this can prevent block failures, just prevent complete catastrophic failure.
A cracked cam bore is fixable by replacing the block. The Black Sheep and Jacked Up failures are practically a whole new setup.
I would assume it would stop almost all the issues. It becomes deckplated with that setup so like the super stock pickups the Cyl explosion is happening in the 1” plate and not being contained in the block. The longer rods keep the side load off the liner. All the pressure is up and down and obviously it’s splitting where the head bolts stop. They’re not blowing out the side of the blocks. I haven’t heard of much Cyclone Machine has come up with that didn’t work.
But according to the European mouth breather they’re only making about 800hp and a stock D12 Volvo can do that with TDI turbo.
Putting a head on a 7fb. Should I replace head bolts? I
have no engine history, other than last person to work on it does not know how to drill manifold bolts out.

That low of compression and stock power will probably be ok. In the previous guys defense those could have been the stainless manifold studs they tried for a while.
