I talked to an old drag racer here and he said they once did this and it helped the engine stay together. He also thought that the cement could be "COOKED OUT" in a oven after pulling all the freeze plugs.

I had just never heard of such a procedure. Personally, I would not be comfortable buying one of the blocks that had the cement treatment done to them.
