Default Re: crack in block

This is a common place for a crack. Usually caused by freezing.

I have had very good luck when an engine is in the car using K W Ceramic Block Seal. Follow the directions exactly and I have an old radiator I temporarily install as it may partially coat the inside of a good radiator. Thru the years, I have use it many times and most of the time I have had good results.

If for some reason it does not work, you can always try J B Weld or pinning etc.

If the engine was out of the car and on the stand, I may take a different approach but in the car, I would first try K W Ceramic Block Seal.

Again, JMO
