Rick,
I'll share a hard earned trick I learned from a rebuilder - bounce the idea
off an engine machine shop you trust but . . . this works: Preheat the
head, weld a fat bead ACROSS the crack (stick welder, nickle rod) every
inch of the crack. This stabilizes the crack and the bead-shrink pulls the
crack together. Then use a sealer, the powdered aluminum type works best
for me.
