Hi everyone , finally got my engine stripped down, After cleaning both the upper and lower sections of the block, I found (3) cracks where the center journal of the crankshaft is located. C
Is there a fix or a solution to this?
I'm kind of disappointed everythingelse in the block looked good after the clean up.
Thanks in advance
Dave
 
I would need to see them to know what your seeing and where they lead to. My first thought is probably not an economical way to fix it. I have seen what I call check marks that go no where that would not cause a problem. Most anything metal can be fixed with enough money. Where are you located? If you are close enough to me so you could pick it up I would fix you up with a good block. I have several good blocks that I will never use at my age. I don't sell parts but would trade for about anything.
 
Thankyou for the reply, The crack runs thru the center of the bolt hole as well as 2 where the journal sits.
I am (5) hrs away in Canada, but desperate enough to do the trip.
I am newbie , so I don't have much to trade, but would be interested in a block.
Thanks

I am two hours from Detroit. I could have the block at the Mid Toll last West exit of the Ohio Turn Pike. I would except anything in a trade that you thought was fair. I got a quart of home made pickles one time and a jar of smoked Salmon another for parts.
 
Thankyou Dick L.
Sorry I didn't get back to you right away, a couple issues arose here.
If I made the trip, it won't be until our Canadian Thanksgiving in October.
I am trying to decide wether to go ahead and rebuild, or buy another thats running for $1,000.
My issue is my rebuild could be go a lot higher than the purchase. (Canadian prices) or buy the running one and not know how much time I have on it.
I will keep you posted, I hate just to throw away everything at this point.
Thanks
Dave
