Yes fill the head and leave the block open. You will need an oil heater. Pros NO water issues Con can't run motor as long

Get a leaf blower or 2 in case you need to cool it down quick for a 2nd run with a sled reset or pull-off.

We have ran a dry block for 6 yrs, head is not filled, altered/hot farm class. It does take us about 45 min to get the block cooled down to a manageable temp in 80 deg. outdoor temps with leaf blowers. We do spray about 3/4 of a gallon of water to help keep the turbo from melting down.
