Can you get to both sides of the block? If so how about something like one of those hole saws with carbide grit on the edge instead of normal teeth? Of a diamond hole saw that you can get at the rent

True cinderblocks and the like are quite soft, and a simple masonry bit spinning in a regular drill will go through it quite readily. Now if it's a true cement block, those are quite a bit harder, a
