Hairline crack in block, can it be repaired?

ruredy · 12-02-2007, 05:47 PM

THats a hell-of-a-crack, Can you see where it stops or does it go to where the end of the crank comes through the case. There's only a few ways to have that happen and none of them are good. I would say the only way to know if it can be fixed right would be starting by pulling the engine and exposing the all the damage

I agree Jon. I will be pulling the motor to get a good picture of how far the crack goes. It doesn't suprise me that it's crack based on how they beat the crap out of the rest of the cart. Most likely I will just stick it on ebay and let it be known that there is a crack and the buyer can just use the rest of the motor for parts unless they want to fix it.

I have the 350 (11hp) motor in a 2000 workhorse. What size is your motor? (I know that sounds kinky).
