Re: Cracked Block
The beginning and end of the fracture was stop-drilled with 1/12" diameter of an inch deep into the water channel. The course of the fracture line was milled 1/4" deep and 1/3" wide a V-seam.
Then were 3 lines overlapping TIG seams welded filled. Every 1" of the length, the tensing forces were extracted with a compressed air needle gun.
It had welded in a special welding company. I do not know the working time, the bill was about $ 340,-.
