Default Shoud I relieve my block

The answer is: absolutely not!!!! The internet as posted several articles on relieving the flathead block. I did allot of this in the early days, untill I went racing, and discovered the fact that very few builders did this. In a conversation with a builder of a few good winning engines , stated there was no real information of the benefits of relieving the block and it was time consuming and a pain in the ass to install the pistons, PLUS no prof that it increased power or economy,
