    What do you think about additives(Cargo seal, K-seal etc) that are supposed to seal any small cracks or gasket leaks?

    Do these products work? or do they screw up your cooling system?

    were the cylinder head bolt holes cleaned? If they had any coolant or oil in it then it can hydrolock the block causing cracks too.

    good luck on your venture.
