Drilling into a perfectly good built block is a stupid idea. You are killing a good block, Expirement with a junker block first.
Regarding your anus comment:He had an issue he was trying to fix. His method has been done on other cars, why not a dsm??? We are talking about an engine block, please leave your anus out of this.

Regarding the "perfectly good" block": He had an issue he was trying to fix. I cannot see how his hole would cause the block to fail. I have pulled several motors in my DSM days and I don't care to do it more times than I have to. By using his "good" block, he could try and save the hassle of doing it again. He talked to a engine builder and he said it was ok to drill there. I am sure he was relying on his experienced opinion when he decided to drill the hole. I would trust an assembler.
