you can have the block brazed IF the person knows how to do it right.Cast needs to be cooled down real slow to prevent futher cracking.I had a block ruined because the person didn't cool it down slow,put about pound of bronze on it.The block kept cracking as it cooled.Best thing you can do by yourself is,grind the crack,drill holes at the ends of the crack and use J.B. weld unless you have pressure on the system.Then your best bet would be to find a welder or machine shop who uses the slow cool down method.
