Nick...
What, you don't trust me ?!? HA HA HA HA... my belief is that there are more negatives than positives from the use of a blockguard.
If you don't buy into anything else... try this one on for size: Steph Papadakis (8.93), Chris Rado (9.54), Ed Berganholz (9.68), Lisa Kubo (9.70)... none of these top names in this sport run a blockguard... and their motors have been abused to the MAX !!! So, what do we know that they don't ???

JRCivic,
Do you know if anyone you mentioned chose to re-sleeve their engines over using a block guard?

Of course sleeving the block is better than a blockguard but it's also a lot more $$$. On a stock motor, I say do it. I've actually installed my NewFormZ blockguard on my D16Z6 and I'm very happy with the result. No more blue smoke, a lot less oil consumption and since it sit lower than the deck, there's plenty coolant to cool down the combustion chamber. No downside for me.
