Do you guys level each bank and pour or just make one pour to the level you want to fill?

Make CERTAIN to Level Each Side Individually and Let A Drying Time between Pours.If not you will have a JUNK block.What happens is the UNSET Filler ROLLS and fills the Galleys for the water Crossover and the water will not FREE-FLOW from one side to the other and Overheat.
MOST Experienced machine shops will be able to POUR for you.REMEMBER the block has to be machined and then poured and then re-machined after drying...

Hey SS - Old Hemi Dude probably appreciates (in a weird, hateful, Norman Bates kinda way) that you added content and clarity to this thread - but he won't be personally responding to you. He's not allowed in this sandbox anymore because he could not play nicely with others - just in case you were unaware...

Good info though!!!
